No.

2√3 = 2 (1.732)

= 3.464 (correct to 3 decimal places)

& OBVIOUSLY N O T equal to 12.

But the square of 2√3 is equal 12.

( 2√3 ) ^2.

= ( 2√3 ) * ( 2√3 )

= (2 ^ 2) * ( √3) ^ 2

= 4 ( 3)

= 12.

2√3 = √ 12

Is it clear now?

If it is, Where is my tenner?

no but it equals √12

2 = √4 right?

so technically we can rewrtie 2√3 = √4 * √3

some property of roots says that when you are mutliply two roots, you can multiply the numbers under the radicals together to put them under one radical sign, so...

√4 * √3 = √(4 * 3) = √12

Sqrt(3) is George Washington's birthday year, 1.732 (1732). So, 2sqrt(3) = 3.464.
