Question

What is true about √50?

It is between 7 and 7.5.
It is between 7.5 and 8.
It is between 6.5 and 7.
It is between 6 and 6.5​

Answer 1

It is between 7 and 7.5

Step-by-step Step-by-step explanation:

We have to compare two perfect square numbers. We know that 7² = 49. 49 is a perfect square number and therefore, √49 = 7. The next perfect square number after 49 is 64 which is 8².

So we know that √49 < √50 < √64 => 7 < √50 < 8. However, by observing the value of √50, it can never be greater than 7.5

Hence, we can conclude that √50 is between 7 and 7.5
