What Is the Square Root of 225?
- For real numbers a and b, if a2 = b, we can express a = √b
- This means that a is the second root of b.
- The square root of 225 is the inverse operation of squaring 15
- 15 × 15 = 225 and -15 ×-15 = 225.
- Therefore, √25 = 15
Is the Square Root of 225 Rational or Irrational?
225 can be expressed as the ratio of two integers.
As 225 can be expressed as 225 = 225/1.
Thus 225 is rational.
How to Find the Square Root of 225?
The square root of 225 can be found by various methods.
Square Root of 225 by Prime Factorization
- Get the prime factorization done for the number 225 by the ladder method or the factor tree method to get the factors.
- After getting the prime factors, arrange them in such a way that they can be expressed as a product of number x number.
- √225 = √(5 × 5 × 3 × 3)
- Squaring on both the sides, we get, √225 =√(52 × 32)
- This gives, 5 × 3 = 15
Square Root of 225 by Long Division Method
Here are the steps to find the square root of 225
- Step 1: Write the pair of digits starting from one's place. Here 25 is the pair.
- Step 2: On finding a divisor "n" such that n × n results in the product ≤ 2. We find 1 × 1 = 1, follow the process of long division and obtain the remainder. Here it is 1.
- Step 3: Now, bring down the next pair of numbers. Here it's 25. Multiply the quotient 1 by 2 and write it in the new divisor's place. Here it's 2.
- Step 4: Find a divisor "n" such that n × n results in the product ≤ 125. Get the next quotient place as 5. Now we get our new divisor as 25, as 5 × 125 = 225. Divide and get the remainder. Here we get 0. Thus finding the square root of 225 by long division is completed. Therefore, 15 is the square root of 225.
