The LCM of 3 and 8 is 24.
The square root of 224 is: 14.9666295471
Given cy - 7 = 5d + 3y, we solve for y as follows:
cy - 3y = 5d + 7
y(c - 3) = 5d + 7
y = (5d + 7) / (c - 3)
This is an iteration method for finding the square root.
The ? is also your first initial guess.
? = 10.5
The iteration formula for the square root is actually.
√n = (x + n/x)÷2.
Where x is your guess.
