Yes, 22 is not a square number. A square number is the result of multiplying an integer by itself, resulting in a perfect square. For example, 4 is a square number because 2 x 2 = 4. However, 22 cannot be expressed as the product of an integer multiplied by itself, so it is not a square number.

How can you tell by looking at the prime factors of 17640 that the square root of 17640 is not a whole number?
Write the prime factors as powers. In a square number, each prime number appears an even number of times - i.e., an even power. Examples: 4 = 22 (even power, this is a square) 144 = 24 x 32 (all powers are even, this is a square) 12 = 22 x 3 or 22 x 31 (3 has an odd power so it is not a square) (If a number is a perfect square, that is equivalent to saying that its square root is a whole number.) * * * * * In this case there is a particularly fast method. The number ends in 0 so 10 must be a factor of the number. That is to say, 2 and 5 must be prime factors of the number. If it is a square then 22 and 52 must be factors of the number ie 22 x 52 = 100 must be a factor. But if 100 is a factor, the number must end in 00. It does not so it cannot be a square.
