What is a simple way to find the radical form of a square root? i.e. the number 368

Break the number down into the highest perfect square that it divides into plus whatever number you multiply it by. Examples: sqrt (square root) of 50, you break that down into 25 (perfect square) x 2, the 25 is 5 squared so your answer is 5 sqrt 2. Example 2: sqrt 147, break down into 49 x 3, 7 sqrt 3
