Question

Estimate square root of 62 using perfect squares. Between which two whole numbers is square root of 62 ​located?

Answer 1

`√(62)` is obviously not a whole number. This value exists between two whole numbers.

`√(64)` &
`√(49)`

These numbers are 8 and 7 respectively. This is found by using
`7^2` &
`8^2` which equals 49 and 64.

So between 7 and 8 is where the square root of 62 should exist.

The square root of 62 by the way is 7.87 rounded.
