Simplifying Surds (B) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Following on from Simplifying Surds (A), this worksheet asks learners to use their knowledge of surds to simplifying some multiplications and divisions with surds.

Section A has some straightforward multiplications to perform and simplify, Section B then extends this to include divisions and a mixture of both.

Section C then finishes the worksheet with some more complicated multiplications and surd fractions to simplify.

All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.

Frequently Asked Questions

Students should already be comfortable with simplifying surds and expanding brackets before tackling these problems. Since this builds directly on foundational surd work, learners will need to apply their existing simplification skills when working through the multiplication and division exercises across all three sections.
