Answer:
7.07
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
Let's find two perfect square numbers that are directly before and after 50.
- [tex]\sqrt{49} < \sqrt{50} < \sqrt{64}[/tex]
- [tex]7 < \sqrt{50} < 8[/tex]
Since the square of 7 is the closest, we can use that as our whole number.
To find the decimal...
49 is 1 away from 50, and 64 is 14 away. Rewriting it as a fraction and we get [tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex]. The decimal is 0.07142857142.
Now, put 7 and 0.07142857142 together and we get 7.07142857142. Rounding that, we get 7.07.
The real value of Root 50 is 7.071067811865475, so the decimals were really close.
