Find the square numbers and see which ones 54 lies between
1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64.
It lies between the two square numbers 49 and 64.
But you want the square root.
So find the square root of 49 and 64.
7 and 8.
So the square root of 54 is between 7 and 8.
Hope this helps.
Somebody can estimate the length of a book by using a ruler and rounding it to the nearest whole number.
Hey. Why are you so worried. Here is the answer. There is a very small problem.It is that the decimal point is not added.
10% of the 50 were red.
10% * 50
(10/100) * 50
(1/10) * 50
= 5
5 were red.
Scientific notation is a way to write compactly numbers with lots of digits, either because they're very large (like 2393490000000000000000000), or very small (like 0.0000000000356).
We use powers of ten to describe all those leading/trailing zeros, so that we con concentrate on the significat digits alone.
In your case, the "important" part of the number is composed by the digits 6 and 1, all the other digits are zero. But how many zeroes? Well, let's do the computation.
Every power of 10,
is written as one zero followed by n zeroes, so we have

Multiplying a number by
means to shift the decimal point to the right and/or add trailing zeroes n times. So, we have to repeat this process six times. We shift the decimal point to the right one position, and then add the five remaning zeroes. The result is thus
