Square Root of 2344

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

If a number is multiplied by the same number, the result is a square. The inverse of the square is a square root. The square root is used in fields like vehicle design, finance, etc. Here, we will discuss the square root of 2344.

What is the Square Root of 2344?

The square root is the inverse of the square of the number. 2344 is not a perfect square. The square root of 2344 is expressed in both radical and exponential form. In the radical form, it is expressed as √2344, whereas in the exponential form it's expressed as (2344)^(1/2). √2344 ≈ 48.42, which is an irrational number because it cannot be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.

Finding the Square Root of 2344

The prime factorization method is used for perfect square numbers. However, the prime factorization method is not used for non-perfect square numbers, where long-division and approximation methods are used. Let us now learn the following methods:

 

  • Prime factorization method
  • Long division method
  • Approximation method

Square Root of 2344 by Prime Factorization Method

The product of prime factors is the prime factorization of a number. Now let us look at how 2344 is broken down into its prime factors.

 

Step 1: Finding the prime factors of 2344 Breaking it down, we get 2 x 2 x 2 x 293: 2^3 x 293

 

Step 2: Now we found the prime factors of 2344. The second step is to make pairs of those prime factors. Since 2344 is not a perfect square, the digits of the number can’t be grouped in pairs.

 

Therefore, calculating √2344 using prime factorization is not straightforward.

Square Root of 2344 by Long Division Method

The long division method is particularly used for non-perfect square numbers. In this method, we should check the closest perfect square number for the given number. Let us now learn how to find the square root using the long division method, step by step:

 

Step 1: To begin, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 2344, we need to group it as 23 and 44.

 

Step 2: Now we need to find n whose square is less than or equal to 23. We can say n is 4 because 4 x 4 = 16, which is less than 23. The quotient is 4, and after subtracting 16 from 23, the remainder is 7.

 

Step 3: Bring down 44 to form the new dividend, which is 744. Add the old divisor (4) to itself (4 + 4 = 8) to form the new divisor.

 

Step 4: Find n such that 8n x n ≤ 744. Let n be 9, then 89 x 9 = 801, which is greater than 744, so we try n = 8, 88 x 8 = 704, which fits.

 

Step 5: Subtract 704 from 744, leaving a remainder of 40. The quotient is now 48.

 

Step 6: Since the remainder is less than the divisor, and we need more precision, add a decimal point and bring down 00, making it 4000.

 

Step 7: Find the new divisor by doubling the current quotient (48) to get 96. Find n such that 96n x n ≤ 4000. Try n = 4, then 964 x 4 = 3856.

 

Step 8: Subtract 3856 from 4000, leaving a remainder of 144. The quotient is 48.4.

 

Step 9: Continue these steps until the desired precision is reached.

 

The approximation of √2344 is 48.42.

Square Root of 2344 by Approximation Method

Approximation is another method for finding square roots. It is an easy method to find the square root of a given number. Now let us learn how to find the square root of 2344 using the approximation method.

 

Step 1: Identify the closest perfect squares to 2344. The smallest perfect square is 2304 (48^2) and the largest is 2401 (49^2). √2344 falls between 48 and 49.

 

Step 2: Apply the formula: (Given number - smallest perfect square) / (Greater perfect square - smallest perfect square)

Using this formula, (2344 - 2304) / (2401 - 2304) = 40 / 97 ≈ 0.41.

Adding this to the closest lower square root, we get 48 + 0.41 = 48.41.

 

Thus, the square root of 2344 is approximately 48.41.

Forgetting about the negative square root

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

It is important to remember that a number has both positive and negative square roots. However, we often take only the positive square root, as it is the required one in many contexts.

For example, √2344 ≈ 48.42, but there is also -48.42, which should not be forgotten.

Problem 1

Can you help Max find the area of a square box if its side length is given as √2344?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The area of the square is 2344 square units.

Explanation

The area of the square = side^2.

The side length is given as √2344.

Area of the square = (√2344) x (√2344) = 2344.

Therefore, the area of the square box is 2344 square units.

Problem 2

A square-shaped building measuring 2344 square feet is built; if each of the sides is √2344, what will be the square feet of half of the building?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

1172 square feet

Explanation

To find half of the building's area, divide the total area by 2.

Dividing 2344 by 2 = 1172.

So half of the building measures 1172 square feet.

Problem 3

Calculate √2344 x 5.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

242.1

Explanation

The first step is to find the square root of 2344, which is approximately 48.42.

Then multiply 48.42 by 5.

So, 48.42 x 5 = 242.1.

Problem 4

What will be the square root of (2304 + 40)?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The square root is 48.

Explanation

To find the square root, we need to find the sum of (2304 + 40).

2304 + 40 = 2344, and then √2344 ≈ 48.

Therefore, the square root of (2304 + 40) is approximately ±48.

Problem 5

Find the perimeter of the rectangle if its length ‘l’ is √2344 units and the width ‘w’ is 38 units.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

We find the perimeter of the rectangle as 172.84 units.

Explanation

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × (length + width)

Perimeter = 2 × (√2344 + 38) ≈ 2 × (48.42 + 38) = 2 × 86.42 = 172.84 units.
