The square root of 72 is about 8.48528137, which simplifies exactly to 6√2. It lies between 8 and 9 because 72 lies between 64 and 81.

  1. Prime factorization

    72=23×3272 = 2^{3} \times 3^{2}

    Each prime's exponent is split into complete groups of 2 and a leftover.

  2. Take out groups of 2

    72=62×2=62\sqrt{72} = \sqrt{6^{2} \times 2} = 6\sqrt{2}

    No prime appears 2 times in 2, so the radical is fully simplified.

  3. Decimal value

    72≈8.48528137423857\sqrt{72} \approx 8.48528137423857

    Computed with exact integer arithmetic; the digits panel shows 30 decimal places.

  4. Is it a perfect square?

    82=64<72<81=928^{2} = 64 < 72 < 81 = 9^{2}

    72 lies strictly between two consecutive perfect squares, so its square root is between 8 and 9 and is irrational.

关于平方根计算器与根式化简工具

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.

常见问题

How do you simplify a square root?

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).

How do you know if a number is a perfect square?

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.

What is the square root of 2 to 50 decimal places?

√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.

How do you find the cube root or nth root of a number?

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.

Why does a positive number have two square roots?

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.

“平方根计算器与根式化简工具”有多准确?

准确性取决于输入值和方法的假设。十进制运算使用50位有效数字,但估算、数值方法和源数据的精度可能较低;显示时的舍入并不能消除这些限制。 已按独立来源核验的计算示例:9。 例如,“√72 (default)”根据OpenStax Elementary Algebra 2e §9.2: √72 = 6√2; Python decimal (60 digits) Decimal(72).sqrt() = 8.4852813742385702928…进行核验。
