Simplifying square roots in...
Hi guys,
The underlined part is quite confusing to me and I hope to hear some opinion.
What do you think could be the best interpretation of the part?
(Is it same with "simplifyig squre roots into the square root of a product" OR "just simplifying square roots which are in the form of the square root of a product" OR anythig else?)
The other sentences are for your reference to figure out the meaning.
Thanks a lot for your comments~

-------------------------
The key relationship in simplifying square roots in the square root of a product is the product of the square roots.
To simplify a square root, try to find a factor of the number under the square root
sign that is a perfect square (4, 9, 16, 25, etc.). If such a factor can be found, then we
can simplify.
For example: v 32= v 16x2= v 16x v 2= 4v 2; this cannot be simplified further.

Top answer
product = (A x B) square root of a product = v(AxB) the product of square roots = vA x vB Does that help?
- product = (A x B) square root of a product = v(AxB) the product of square roots = vA x vB Does that help?

product = (A x B)
square root of a product = v(AxB)
the product of square roots = vA x vB
Does that help?

This eliminates any consideration of the square root of a prime number, for example, whic
