Problem

Simplify: \[ \sqrt{128 d}= \]

Solution

Step 1 :Given the expression \(\sqrt{128 d}\).

Step 2 :We need to simplify this expression.

Step 3 :First, we break down the number 128 into its prime factors. The prime factors of 128 are 2*2*2*2*2*2*2.

Step 4 :Next, we pair up the identical factors. Each pair of 2's under the square root can be simplified to a single 2 outside the square root. Since there are seven 2's, we get three pairs and one left over. This gives us 2*2*2*\(\sqrt{2}\) = 8*\(\sqrt{2}\).

Step 5 :Finally, we multiply this by the square root of d to get the simplified expression.

Step 6 :So, the simplified form of \(\sqrt{128 d}\) is \(8\sqrt{2}\sqrt{d}\).
