What is the square root of 850 simplified?

Answer

√850 = 5√34

850 = 25 × 34, and 25 = 5² is the largest perfect square that divides 850, so √850 = √25 × √34 = 5√34. Check: 5√34 ≈ 29.155, the same as √850 ≈ 29.155.

Simplifying √850 Step by Step

1. Prime factorization. — All Prime Factors of 850:

850 = 2 × 5 × 5 × 17 = 2 × 52 × 17

2. Pair up equal primes. Each pair is a perfect square and comes out of the root as one factor; a prime without a partner stays under the radical.

3. Take the pairs out of the root.

√850 = √((5 × 5) × 2 × 17)

= 5 × √(2 × 17)

= 5√34

4. Check by squaring back.

5² × 34 = 25 × 34 = 850
