Simplify Square Root Calculator

Simplify \( \sqrt{N} \) using prime factorization. Step-by-step explanations.

Enter a positive integer
Enter a number and click "Simplify \( \sqrt{N} \)"
Examples
\( \sqrt{72} = 6\sqrt{2} \)   |   \( \sqrt{128} = 8\sqrt{2} \)   |   \( \sqrt{180} = 6\sqrt{5} \)   |   \( \sqrt{7} \) cannot be simplified (prime)
Square root rule: group prime factors in pairs. Each pair becomes one factor outside the radical.
Cannot simplify when: the number has no prime factor appearing 2 or more times (e.g., prime numbers, product of distinct primes).
