Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you square a number, you chose a number and multiplying itself. If you did the square root of 25, you would get 5. However if you divided 25 by 2, you would get 12.5 which is NOT the square root.

Answer:

No, that is not what the definition of square root is.

Step-by-step explanation:

what $\sqrt{25}$ means is that $\sqrt{25}$ = x where x * x = 25

It means find a number x such that x times x equals 25.

In this case we know 5*5 = 25, so we say 5 = $\sqrt{25}$
