Answer 1

To find the square root of 96, we can simplify it as follows:

1. Factor 96 into its prime factors:
\(96 = 16 \times 6 = 4^2 \times 6\).

2. Now, we can take the square root:
\(\sqrt{96} = \sqrt{16 \times 6} = \sqrt{16} \times \sqrt{6} = 4\sqrt{6}\).

So the square root of 96 is \(4\sqrt{6}\).

From the provided responses, the answer that matches this is \(4\sqrt{6}\).
