Answer:

0.17 and 0.18

Explanation:

Usually, a question like this asks for two integer values that bound the root. Here, those would be 0 and 1.

√(3/100) = (√3)/10 ≈ 0.17320508...

You can truncate this at any point to find a number lower than √.03, then add 1 to that value's least-significant digit to find a number higher than √.03.

For example, if we use 4 digits, the two numbers bounding the root could be ...

0.1732 and 0.1733
