√300 can be simplified as follows:
√300 = √(100 * 3)
√300 = √100 * √3
√300 = 10√3
Therefore, √300 is equal to 10√3.
√300 = √(100 * 3)
√300 = √100 * √3
√300 = 10√3
Therefore, √300 is equal to 10√3.
We can start by finding the prime factorization of 300:
300 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 * 5
To simplify the square root, we can group the factors into pairs of the same number:
300 = (2 * 2) * (3) * (5 * 5)
Inside the square root, the pairs will come out of the square root as a single factor:
√300 = √(2 * 2) * √(3) * √(5 * 5)
Simplifying each part:
√4 = 2
√3 remains as √3
√25 = 5
Putting it all together:
√300 = 2√3 * 5
Therefore, √300 can be simplified to 2√3 * 5.
300 ÷ 2 = 150
150 ÷ 2 = 75
75 ÷ 3 = 25
25 ÷ 5 = 5
So, the prime factorization of 300 is 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 5.
Now, let's group the factors of 300 into pairs with the same value. We can pair the two 2's and the two 5's:
√(2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 5)
Using the property of square roots that √(a × b) = √a × √b, we can split the square root into two separate square roots:
= √(2 × 2) × √(3 × 5 × 5)
Simplifying further:
= 2 × 5 × √3
= 10√3
So, the simplified form of √300 is 10√3.
