Question

express in simplest radical form.\\(\sqrt{12}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Factor 12 into perfect square

$12 = 4 \times 3$

Step2: Split radical into product

$\sqrt{12} = \sqrt{4 \times 3} = \sqrt{4} \times \sqrt{3}$

Step3: Simplify perfect square root

$\sqrt{4} = 2$, so $2 \times \sqrt{3}$

Answer:

$2\sqrt{3}$
