Q. Simplify.Remove all perfect squares from inside the square root. Assume a is positive.108a6=□
Pair perfect squares: Next, we can pair the perfect squares under the square root: 22×33×a6=22×32×3×a2×a2×a2.
Take out perfect squares: Now, we can take out the perfect squares from under the square root: 22×32×3×a2×a2×a2=2×3×a×a×a×3. This simplifies to: 6a3×3.
