120 = 60 x 12
60 = 6 x 10
12 = 3 x 4
FOUR is the only perfect square that goes into 120.

perfect squares are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121
The largest of these to divide 120 is 4

120 = 12*10 = 3*2*2*2*5.
We need to take the most of each factor but an even number of times. That means we take zero 3's, two 2's, and zero 5's. That gives us the answer of 4.

Find the prime factors, since all the factors are products of the prime factors.
120 = 2*2*2*3*5
So the only square factor will be 2*2 = 4.
