Calculating Square Roots using Prime Factorization
Task 1: Group Alpha
- Prime factors of 36: 2, 2, 3, 3
- Prime factors of 1296: 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3
- Pairing prime factors: (2, 2), (3, 3) for 36 and (2, 2), (2, 2), (3, 3), (3, 3) for 1296
- Taking one number from each pair out of the square root: 2, 3 for 36 and 2, 2, 3, 3 for 1296
- Square roots of 36 and 1296: 6 and 36, respectively
Task 2: Group Gamma
- Prime factors of 81: 3, 3, 3, 3
- Prime factors of 4096: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2
- Pairing prime factors: (3, 3), (3, 3) for 81 and (2, 2), (2, 2), (2, 2), (2, 2), (2, 2), (2, 2) for 4096
- Taking one number from each pair out of the square root: 3, 3 for 81 and 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 for 4096
- Square roots of 81 and 4096: 9 and 64, respectively
Task 3: Group Delta
- Prime factors of 64: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2
- Prime factors of 5776: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 11, 11
- Pairing prime factors: (2, 2), (2, 2), (2, 2) for 64 and (2, 2), (2, 2), (2, 2), (11, 11) for 5776
- Taking one number from each pair out of the square root: 2, 2, 2 for 64 and 2, 2, 2, 11 for 5776
- Square roots of 64 and 5776: 8 and 76, respectively
