Question

Is √10 greater than, less than, or equal to 5?

Because 10 lies between between two consecutive perfect squares, CHOOSE (9 and 12 or 4 and 5 or 9 and 16 or 16 and 25), √10 is located between the CHOOSE (square roots or squares) of these two numbers.
This means that √10 is located between CHOOSE (9 and 16 or 81 and 256 or 3 and 4 or 2 and 3), so √10 is CHOOSE (less than or greater than or equal to) 5.

Answer 1

√10 is greater than 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine whether √10 is greater than, less than, or equal to 5, we can compare it to the square roots of two consecutive perfect squares. In this case, 10 lies between 9 and 16. Therefore, √10 is located between the square roots of 9 and 16, which are 3 and 4 respectively. Since √10 is greater than 3, we can conclude that it is greater than 5 as well.
