You should know the squares of the numbers 1 through 20 to make your life easier.
Examples 1 and 2
Simplify. Simplify.
Break apart the

2 21
Break down 84 into two factors. Keep breaking down the factors until all prime numbers or perfect roots come out.
Tip: When breaking down variables that are in square roots put them in groups of 2 because the square root of a square if just that number
or variable.

Multiply and Simplify1st break each square root apart and then simplify your perfect square roots and any roots that occur twice…remember they become that number out of the square root
