Radical Simplifier
Enter the radicand (the number inside the root) and the index (2 = square root, 3 = cube root) — you will get the simplified form, like root(72) = 6 root(2), with steps.
Enter values — the result will show live here.
How to use
- Enter the radicand and index (if the index is empty, 2 is assumed).
- The result shows the part taken outside (coefficient), the part left inside, and the decimal value.
Note: method — the radicand's perfect power factors are taken outside. A negative radicand with an even index has no real result.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does the Radical Simplifier show?
The simplified form of a radical, for example the square root of 72 becomes 6 times the square root of 2, plus the coefficient, the part left inside and the decimal value, with steps.
Which root indexes are supported?
Index 2 for square root, index 3 for cube root, and higher whole numbers.
What happens with a negative number and an even index?
A negative radicand with an even index has no real result, and the calculator says so.
Is the Radical Simplifier free?
Yes. It is free, needs no signup, and runs entirely in your browser.
