This page keeps the numbers and explanation together.

How the Math Works

√n = outside × √inside after removing perfect square factors

SymbolMeaningSimple way to think about it
numberWhole number under the rootThe number you type for whole number under the root
resultFinal answerThe number the calculator gives back
