Square Root of Number in the Fraction Form


In square root of number in the fraction form, suppose the square root of a fraction xa is that fraction ya which when multiplied by itself gives the fraction xa.



If x and y are squares of some numbers then,

xy=xy

If the fraction is expressed in a mixed form, convert it into improper fraction. 

Find the square root of numerator and denominator separately and write the answer in the fraction form.


Examples on square root of number in the fraction form are explained below;

1. Find the square root of 625256

Solution:


625256=625256

Now, we find the square roots of 625 and 256 separately.








Thus, √625 = 25 and √256 = 16

625256=625256 = 2526




2. Evaluate: 441961.


Solution:

441961=441961

Now, we find the square roots of 441 and 961 separately.







Thus, √441 = 21 and √961 = 31

⇒ 441961 = 441961 = 2131




3. Find the values of 72 up to 3 decimal places. 


Solution:


To make the denominator a perfect square, multiply the numerator and denominator by √2.

Therefore, 7×22×2142


Now, we find the square roots of 14 up to 3 places of decimal.










Thus, √14 = 3.741 up to 3 places of decimal.

                  = 3.74 correct up to 2 places of decimal.

Therefore, 142 = 3.742 = 1.87. 



4. Find the square root of 156169

Solution: 

156169 = 225169

Therefore, 156169 = 225169=225169


We find the square roots of 225 and 169 separately








Therefore, √225 = 15 and √169 = 13

⇒ 156169 = 225169=225169 = 1513 = 1213




5. Find the value of 243363.

Solution: 

243363 = 243363  = 81121=81121 = 911 




6. Find out the value of √45 × √20.

Solution:


√45 × √20 = √(45 × 20)

                   = √(3 × 3 × 5 × 2 × 2 × 5)

                   = √(3 × 3 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 )

                   = (3 × 2 × 5)

                   = 30.
