Answer:

The two consecutive whole numbers that the √50 is between are 7 and 8.

Explanation:

The square root of any number can be determined by finding a number which when multiplied by itself gives that number.

Let us look at the squares of some numbers:


2^(2) =4


3^(2) =9


4^(2) =16


5^(2) =25.


6^(2) =36


7^(2) =49


8^(2) =64

50 lies between 49 and 64.

Hence the two consecutive whole numbers that the √50 is between are 7 and 8.
