The number that, when multiplied by itself, equals 24 is called the square root of 24. The square root of 24 is approximately 4.899, as the square root of 24 is a non-perfect square. This means that there is no whole number that, when multiplied by itself, equals exactly 24.

24 is not a square number (i.e., 4, because 2 x 2 = 4, or 9 because 3 x 3 = 9)

Therefore the only possible answer is √24.

√24 can be simplified to 2√6

√24 = √(4 x 6) = (√4)(√6) = 2√6

So the answer is (2√6) x (2√6) = 24

You could also say (√24)(√24) = 24, if you do not need to simplify the answer.
