Answer:

  • See below

Explanation:

#12

The square root of a number is a whole number between 50 and 100.

Let the number be n, given:

  • 50 < √n < 100

Square both sides:

  • 50² < n < 100²
  • 2500 < n < 10000

The number is a perfect square between 2500 and 10000.

#13

Let the number is n:

  • √n > n

Square both sides:

  • n > n²
  • n² - n < 0
  • n(n - 1) < 0

Solution is:

  • 0 < n < 1

The answer is yes, the number must be between 0 and 1.
