Simplifying Radicals (Factor Tree Method)

Ms. Smith's Math Tutorials Edit Note: In the square root of 33 example, I incorrectly state that the only factors of 33 are 1 and 33. This is incorrect as 11 and 3 are also factors of 33. The result is still the same as the square root of 33 is as simplified as it gets, but this was an error in my process/explanation. Thank you Cider Fan for catching this! You Try Answer: 3xy√5y (reads: 3xy times the square root of 5y)
