13
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Finding the prime factors of 7200 Breaking it down, we get 2^4 × 3^2 × 5^2: 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5</p>

14
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we found the prime factors of 7200. The second step is to make pairs of those prime factors. Since 7200 is not a perfect square, therefore the digits of the number can’t be grouped in complete pairs. Therefore, calculating 7200 using prime factorization results in √7200 = 2^2 × 3 × 5 × √2 = 60√2 ≈ 84.8528.</p>
