Question

Simplify $\sqrt{32.}$

Answer 1

Compute the required value:

The given number is $\sqrt{32.}$

We can express $32$ as the product of prime numbers.

$32$ $=2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 2$

$=2^4\times 2$

Taking root on both sides

$\surd 32=2^2\times \surd 2$

$=4\surd 2$

$=4\times 1.414$

$=5.656$

Hence, the square root of$32is5.656.$
