$sqrt(106)$ is already in simplified radical form.

Factoring $106$ we find:

$106 = 2*53$

It has no square factors and hence there is no factor we can separate out and bring outside the radical.

We could write:

$sqrt(106) = sqrt(2*53) = sqrt(2)sqrt(53)$

but that is not (usually) considered simplified.
