Question

What’s the square root of 13 to the nearest integer

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, integers are Whole Numbers (1,2,3,4, etc), so we are rounding the answer to the nearest whole number.

The square root of lets just say 25 means you are finding a number that multiplied by itself will equal 25 (the answer is 5).

Now for 13, there is no perfect square, however the closest whole number that multiplied by itself to 13 is 4.

4*4= 16

3*3=9

5*5=25

As you can see above 4 is the closest number to 13.

Now, the ACTUAL value of the square root of 13 is 3.60555128, but we are rounding up to the nearest whole number which is 4 :)
