 Start with the given expression
The goal of simplifying expressions with square roots is to factor the radicand into a product of two numbers. One of these two numbers must be a perfect square. When you take the square root of this perfect square, you will get a rational number.
So let's list the factors of 110
Factors:
1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 55,110
Since none of these factors are perfect squares, we cannot simplify
Make sure that there isn't a typo.
