sqrt%28149%29 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.

However, since 149 is prime, we cannot factor 149 any further. So the expression sqrt%28149%29 cannot be reduced any further
