Find the square root of 3 Digit Number

Questions 1) $\sqrt{625}$ = ?

Solution:

Step 1: First we need to ignore last two digits of 625.i.e 25

Step 2: Now from the above table, find square of a number which is less than and nearest to 6. That number is 2. So left part of answer will be 2.

Step 3: Since last digit of ’625‘ is ‘5‘. From the above table the last digit of 5 comes from the square 5 .Therefore right part (R) of our answer will be ’5′.

Answer = 25

Questions 2) $\sqrt{784}$ = ?

Solution:

Step 1: Fist we need to ignore last two digit . i .e 84

Step 2: Now from the above table, find square of a number which is less than and nearest to 7.That number is 2 so left part of answer is 2

Step 3: Since the last digit of '784' is 4 .From the above table the last digit of 4 comes from the square of 2 and 8.Now we have to find whether it is 2 or 8For that, multiply left part answer with 1 added in it means multiply 2 with 2 (2+1) = 6 which is less than 7

So that part of answer will be 2 and 8. right part answer will be bigger of 2 or 8 which is 8.

Answer = 28
