You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If you want to reduce $\"sqrt%2840x%29\"$ then\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"sqrt%284%2A10x%29\"$ rewrite 40 as the product of 4 and 10\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"sqrt%284%29%2Asqrt%2810x%29%29\"$ Rewrite the square root of the product as the product of square roots (ie $\"sqrt%28x%2Ay%29=sqrt%28x%29sqrt%28y%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2%2Asqrt%2810x%29%29\"$ since 4 is a perfect square, it reduces to 2. So this is your reduced form. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
