Dividing Radicals Calculator
The Dividing Radicals Calculator divides one square-root expression by another using the quotient rule for radicals, and gives the simplified decimal result. Enter the coefficients and radicands.
Formula
(a√b) ÷ (c√d) = (a/c)·√(b/d)
- Divide the coefficients and divide the radicands separately.
- The final value is the coefficient times the square root of the radicand ratio.
6√8 ÷ 2√2
Inputs
- Coefficient 1: 6
- Radicand 1: 8
- Coefficient 2: 2
- Radicand 2: 2
(6/2)·√(8/2) = 3·√4 = 3·2 = 6.
Frequently asked questions
How do you divide radicals?
Divide the numbers outside the roots, divide the numbers inside the roots, then simplify: (a√b)/(c√d) = (a/c)√(b/d).
