The concept of a factor makes proper sense only in the context of integers. Otherwise, any non-zero number can be factor of any other number.
For example, radical 7 is a factor of radical 18 since
radical(180) = radical(7) * radical (18/7)
factor the 18. 18=2x3x3. Take out the 3 because it is squared. 5x3 radical 2=15radical2
√18
The SQRT(18) in radical form is 3*SQRT(2), where SQRT represents the radical symbol.
15 radical 2
It would be radical 170, because 170 cannot factor anything outside of the radical.
The radicand is the value under the radical symbol.
That one may factor under the radical.
radical 231; no perfect squares factor into this number. It cant be simplified
18, -18
No, 18 is a multiple of 6. 6 is a factor of 18.
72 is not a factor of 18; 18 is a factor of 72.
You cannot factor negative radical numbers because the square of a number must always be positive. A negative number multiplied by a negative number produces a positive number. So, it is impossible to have a negative radical.
