Q. 58 - Intermediate Algebra

Question

In the following exercises, use the Product Property to simplify radical expressions $\sqrt{96}$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The expression in simplified form is $4\sqrt{6}$

Step 1: Given information

Given the expression,$\sqrt{96}$

Step 2: Using the product property to simplify

On using the property, we get

$$\begin{gathered} \sqrt{96}=\sqrt{16\times 6} \\ \sqrt{96}=\sqrt{16}\times \sqrt{6} \\ \sqrt{96}=4\sqrt{6} \end{gathered}$$
