Math Problem Statement

make 80 in radical form an equivalent expression of an integer multiplied by a radical

Solution

To express 8080 in radical form as an equivalent expression of an integer multiplied by a radical, we can break 8080 into its prime factors and simplify.

  1. Prime factorization of 8080:
    80=24×580 = 2^4 \times 5

  2. Group the perfect squares inside the square root: 80=24×5=(22)2×5\sqrt{80} = \sqrt{2^4 \times 5} = \sqrt{(2^2)^2 \times 5}

  3. Simplify the perfect square part: 80=42×5=45\sqrt{80} = \sqrt{4^2 \times 5} = 4\sqrt{5}

So, the equivalent expression is: 80=45\sqrt{80} = 4\sqrt{5}
