Chapter CSB, Problem 2.7E

To determine

To estimate:thegiven square root to the nearest whole number.

Answer to Problem 2.7E

  $\sqrt{200}=14$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given square rootis $\sqrt{200}$ .

Calculation:

As the given square root is $\sqrt{200}$ .

Now, to find the square root of the given number, therefore,

  $\begin{array}{l}\sqrt{200}=14.1421\\ \left\{\text{round up to nearest whole number}\right\}\\ \therefore \sqrt{200}=14\{\text{round}}\end{array}$

Hence, the square root to the nearest whole number is $\sqrt{200}=14$ .
