Simplify radical terms, including fraction power expressions.
Review the expression below and describe how to simplify the expression:
�ã100
Please help, I just do not know how to describe this.
√100 = 10 because 100 = 10^2
when simplifying square roots, look for perfect squares which are factors of the radicand.
√40 = √(4*10) = √4 √10 = 2√10
To simplify the given expression, which is √100, you need to find the perfect square factor(s) of the number inside the square root symbol (√).
In this case, the perfect square factor of 100 is 10, since 10² equals 100.
So, you can rewrite the expression as √100 = √(10²).
Now, you can use the property of square roots that says the square root of a product is equal to the product of the square roots.
Therefore, √(10²) is equal to √10 multiplied by √10, which can be simplified further as 10.
So the final simplified expression is √100 = 10.
