Question

Use a number line to approximate the value of root 33

Answer 1

Let's think about the square root of 33 here for a second.

What two perfect squares surround 33?

The answer is 25 and 36.

Then, let's take the square root of both 25 and 36, which are 5 and 6. Therefore, since the square root of 25 and 36 are both nearest to the square root of 33, then the square root of 3 must be between 5 and 6.

The correct answer is A (or option 1): 5 < root 33 < 6

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

Answer:

a (the first choice)
