What is the square root of 67

Inessa [10]

Every positive number has two square roots.

The square roots of 67 are 8.185... (rounded) and -8.185... (rounded) .

Both are irrational numbers, so they can't be completely written down
with digits. No matter how many decimal places I write, it can never be
enough, because these decimals go on forever and never end.
