Question

Find two whole numbers that are closer to√22

Answer 1

Let the whole numbers be x and y

let us find root 22

`\sqrt[]{22\text{ }}\text{ can be expressed as }\sqrt[]{11}\text{ x }\sqrt[]{2}`
`\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{11}\text{ = 3.36 } \\ \sqrt[]{2}\text{ = }1.414 \end{gathered}`

= 3.36 x 1.414

= 4.75

the whole numbers that are closed to squareroot of 22 are 1 and 3

the answer is 1 and 3

when you round up the values for root 2 and 11 respectively, you have 1 and 3
