3 <p>Let’s discuss what is a square root? The square root of a number is a number, when multiplied by itself gives the number. Radical symbol (√) is the symbol used to indicate square root. The square root of 25 is ±5. We use it in our daily life in physics, engineering, finance etc.</p>

4 <h2>What is the square root of 1600</h2>

5 <p>In this topic, the<a>square</a>root of 1600 is ±40. The square root of 1600 is expressed as √1600, in radical form. It is expressed as (1600)½ in<a>exponential form</a>. </p>

6 <h2>Finding the square root of 1600</h2>

7 <p>If a student wants to find the<a>square root</a>of a<a>number</a>. Which are the methods they can use? Some common methods are,</p>

8 <ul><li>Prime factorization</li>

9 </ul><ul><li>Long<a>division</a></li>

10 </ul><ul><li>Approximation</li>

11 </ul><ul><li>Subtraction method </li>

12 </ul><p>Let’s check the square root of 1600 using these methods </p>

13 <h3>Square root of 1600 by prime factorization</h3>

14 <p>In this method, all the<a>prime factors</a>of the number are listed down and then from there one number from each pair is listed down. Then the numbers are multiplied together. </p>

15 <p>By using prime factorization, let’s check out the square root of 1600.</p>

16 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Listing out the prime factors of 1600 and pairing the same numbers.</p>

17 <p>Prime factors of 1600 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 5</p>

18 <p>Pairing the factors i.e, (2 × 2), (2 × 2), (2 × 2), (5 × 5)</p>

19 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>multiplying a number from each pair</p>

20 <p>2 × 2 × 2 × 5 =40</p>

21 <p>Hence, the √1600 is 40 </p>

The process will go on till the given number becomes 0. Here, the step count is equal to the square root of the number. </p>

37 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>The given number is subtracted from 1, i.e, 1600 - 1 = 1599</p>

36 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>The given number is subtracted from 1, i.e, 1600 - 1 = 1599</p>

38 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>The obtained number is subtracted with the next odd number. Here, the number is 3, so 1599 - 3 =1596.</p>

37 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>The obtained number is subtracted with the next odd number. Here, the number is 3, so 1599 - 3 =1596.</p>

39 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Continue the process till the number is 0. Here the process will continue till step 40. Hence, the square root of 1600 is ±40.</p>

38 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Continue the process till the number is 0. Here the process will continue till step 40. Hence, the square root of 1600 is ±40.</p>

40 <p>1600 - 1 =1599 → step 1</p>

39 <p>1600 - 1 =1599 → step 1</p>

41 <p>1599 - 3 =1596 → step 2</p>

40 <p>1599 - 3 =1596 → step 2</p>

42 <p>1596 - 5 =1591 → step 3</p>

41 <p>1596 - 5 =1591 → step 3</p>

43 <p>1591 - 7 =1584 → step 4</p>

42 <p>1591 - 7 =1584 → step 4</p>

44 <p>1584 - 9 =1575 → step 5</p>

43 <p>1584 - 9 =1575 → step 5</p>

45 <p>1575 - 11 =1564 → step 6</p>

44 <p>1575 - 11 =1564 → step 6</p>
