Finding the square root of 3600

To find the square root of a number of students learn many methods. When a number is a perfect square and the process of finding the square root is simple. 
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Prime factorization method

Step 1: prime factorize 


3600 = 24×32×52


Step 2: group the factors 


√3600 = √(24×32×52) 


Step 3: find the product of factors to find the square root 


 22×3×5 = 60

Division method

Step 1: Pair 3600 as shown 


3600 → (36)(00) 


Step 2: pick a number whose square is ≤ 36, 62=36 


— 6 is quotient. 


— Subtract the numbers, 36-36=0. 


— numbers 00 are to be brought down next to the remainder. 


Step 3: double quotient, use it as new divisor’s first digit


— Double 6.


— Now find the digit x in a way that 12x×x = 00 


— x is 0, 120×0 = 0.


Step 4: find the final quotient 


— The quotient is 60, the square root of √3600


The result; √3600 = 60

Repeated subtraction method

Step 1: Start subtraction of consecutive odd numbers starting from 1 from 3600.


Step 2: Maintain a count of the number of the subtractions performed


3600-1= 3599


3599-3 =3596


3596-5=3591


3591-7=3584


Step 3: Continue the subtraction until the remainder is 0.


After performing 60 subtractions, the remainder is 0. The square root of the number is 60. 


The result; √3600 = 60
