Answer:

You can say that √105 is somewhere between 10 and 11 because 105 lies between the squares of 10 and 11 (100 and 121, respectively). However, 105 isn't a perfect square, so you can't really find its exact square root. If you have a calculator with you, you can solve for an approximate of √105 which is 10.246950766.

10 because 10 times 10 is 100

11 times 11 is 121
