3 <p>If a number is multiplied by itself, the result is a square. The inverse of the square is a square root. Square roots are used in fields like vehicle design, finance, etc. Here, we will discuss the square root of 16/100.</p>

4 <h2>What is the Square Root of 16/100?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>square</a>root is the inverse<a>of</a>the square of the<a>number</a>. 16/100 is a<a>perfect square</a><a>fraction</a>. The square root of 16/100 can be expressed in both radical and<a>exponential form</a>. In radical form, it is expressed as √(16/100), whereas in exponential form, it is expressed as (16/100)^(1/2). √(16/100) = √(4/10) = 2/10 = 0.2, which is a<a>rational number</a>because it can be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.</p>

6 <h2>Finding the Square Root of 16/100</h2>

7 <p>The<a>square root</a>of a fraction is found by taking the square root of the<a>numerator</a>and the<a>denominator</a>separately. Let us now learn the method:</p>

8 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Find the square root of the numerator (16) and the denominator (100).</p>

9 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>The square root of 16 is 4, and the square root of 100 is 10.</p>

10 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>So, the square root of 16/100 is 4/10, which simplifies to 0.2.</p>

11 <h3>Square Root of 16/100 by Prime Factorization Method</h3>

12 <p>Prime factorization can also be used to find the square root of perfect square fractions.</p>

13 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Find the<a>prime factors</a>of the<a>numerator and denominator</a>. The prime factors of 16 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 2, and the prime factors of 100 are 2 x 2 x 5 x 5.</p>

14 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Pair the prime factors: Numerator: (2 x 2) x (2 x 2) Denominator: (2 x 2) x (5 x 5)</p>

15 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Take one factor from each pair: Numerator: 2 x 2 = 4 Denominator: 2 x 5 = 10</p>

16 <p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The square root of 16/100 is 4/10, which simplifies to 0.2.</p>
