What is the simplified form of √12?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2√3

The governing concept is extracting a perfect-square factor from a radical. Factor 12 as 4 × 3, where 4 is a perfect square. Using √(ab) = √a × √b for non-negative factors, √12 = √(4 × 3) = √4 × √3 = 2√3. Therefore option B is correct. Option A, 6√2, would square to 72 and is too large. Option C, 3√2, would square to 18, not 12. Option D, 4√3, would square to 48. The expression 2√3 cannot be reduced further because 3 has no factor greater than 1 that is a perfect square. This method is preferable to using a decimal approximation because it gives the exact simplified radical.
