| Prime | Exponent | Groups of 2 (come out) | Left inside |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 3 | 1 | 1 |
| 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
Each prime's exponent is split into complete groups of 2 and a leftover.
No prime appears 2 times in 2, so the radical is fully simplified.
Computed with exact integer arithmetic; the digits panel shows 30 decimal places.
72 lies strictly between two consecutive perfect squares, so its square root is between 8 and 9 and is irrational.
The square root of x is the non-negative number that gives x when multiplied by itself; the nth root does the same with n equal factors. The calculator takes the root with exact whole-number arithmetic, so every digit shown is correct, and simplifies the radical by prime factorization: write the number as a product of prime powers, move each complete group of n equal primes outside the root sign, and leave the rest inside.
For 72 = 2³ × 3², one pair of 2s and one pair of 3s come out as 2 × 3 = 6, and one 2 stays inside, so √72 = 6√2 ≈ 8.485281. Since 8² = 64 and 9² = 81, 72 is not a perfect square. Fractions and decimals work too: √0.72 = √(18/25) = 3√2/5.
Digits are truncated, not rounded, and up to 1,000 decimal places are available. An even root of a negative number is not a real number; odd roots of negative numbers are, as ∛(−54) = −3∛2.

Factor the number into primes, pair up equal primes, and move one of each pair outside the root. 72 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 has a pair of 2s and a pair of 3s, so 2 × 3 = 6 comes out and one 2 stays in: √72 = 6√2. Equivalently, split off the largest perfect square factor: 72 = 36 × 2, and √36 = 6. A root is simplified when nothing under the sign has a square factor (OpenStax Elementary Algebra 2e, §9.2).
A whole number is a perfect square when every exponent in its prime factorization is even, or equivalently when its square root is a whole number. 144 = 2⁴ × 3² is 12², while 72 = 2³ × 3² is not, because the exponent of 2 is odd. Perfect squares also end only in 0, 1, 4, 5, 6 or 9, so a number ending in 2, 3, 7 or 8, such as 72, can be ruled out at a glance.
√2 = 1.41421356237309504880168872420969807856967187537694, truncated after 50 decimal places. The digits never end or repeat, because √2 is irrational: it is not a ratio of two whole numbers. The ISO 216 paper sizes use it, so an A4 sheet's sides are in the ratio 297/210 = 1.414.
The nth root of x is the number that, used n times as a factor, gives x. To simplify it, take out every complete group of n equal primes: 54 = 2 × 3³, so ∛54 = 3∛2 ≈ 3.779763. For an nth root with a decimal answer, raise x to the power 1/n; calculator.net's example gives the 8th root of 15 as 1.403 to three places.
Because a negative times a negative is positive: 8.485…² and (−8.485…)² both equal 72. The radical sign √ means the principal, non-negative root, so √72 = 6√2 and the other root is −6√2; together they are written ±6√2. Solving x² = 72 therefore gives two answers. Odd roots have only one real value, and ∛(−8) = −2.
La precisione dipende dai dati inseriti e dalle ipotesi del metodo. Il calcolo decimale usa 50 cifre significative, ma stime, metodi numerici e dati di origine possono essere meno precisi; l’arrotondamento visualizzato non elimina questi limiti.
