Math Problem Statement

150\sqrt{150}

Solution

The value of 150\sqrt{150} can be simplified as follows:

First, break down 150 into its prime factors: 150=2×3×52150 = 2 \times 3 \times 5^2

Now, apply the square root: 150=2×3×52\sqrt{150} = \sqrt{2 \times 3 \times 5^2}

Since 52=5\sqrt{5^2} = 5, we can simplify: 150=5×6\sqrt{150} = 5 \times \sqrt{6}

Thus, 150\sqrt{150} simplifies to: 56\boxed{5\sqrt{6}}
