Answer:

16

Explanation:

16: 16=4^2 and is even. 16/2=8

30: 30 is even, 30/2=15. However, the square root of 30 is between 5 and 6(
√(25)and
√(36)).

81: 81=9^2, but 81 is not even. 81/2=40.5.

99: 99 is not even and doesn't have a square root. The square root of 100 is 10, so the square root of 99 is around 9.9, slightly less than 10.
