Students carry their arithmetic with rational numbers into radical expressions: combining like radicals, multiplying two square roots, and rationalizing a quotient. Simplifying so the radicand carries no perfect square or perfect cube factor is usually part of the job.
How the Algebra 1 EOC tests this benchmark
EOC items apply a single operation to two square roots or two cube roots, never a long chain. The answer is expected in simplest radical form, which is where most points are lost. Equation editor items ask for the simplified radical directly; multiple choice items pair the correct value with unsimplified and mis-simplified distractors.
