Answer:

First of all you need to know the
\sqrt {4} it's equal to 2 and


\sqrt {1} which is the number is between 1 and 2 and between that number there maybe the possibilities of above 0.5 or under 0.5

After that Figure out which one was bigger?
\sqrt {2} or
\sqrt {3} ? The answer is
\sqrt {3} and
\sqrt {3} also near to
\sqrt {4} so it should be above 0.5 .

So we know that
\sqrt {2} is between 1 and 1.5.

Hopes that information was help you a lot
