how do you work out square routes?

Answer 1

Use the square root button on a calculator. Or estimate/use trial and error e.g. if you want to find the square root of 16, you might know that 3x3 is 9 and 5x5 is 25 so try 4x4 to get something in between. For some numbers it's very difficult to work it out mentally or with a pen and paper because it's not always a whole number.

Answer 2

You times the number by its-self e.g. the square route of 4 is 16. You can write it like this...4with a small 2 next to it = 4X4

Answer 3

Square root means " what number, times by itself."
eg; the square root of 49 is 7
7x7=49

the square root of 64 is 8
8x8=64

the square root of 144 is 12
12x12=144

Hope this helps

Answer 4

I don't! I avoid them whenever possible, because they are rather circuitous.

To get more serious though, there is an algorithm for working out the square root, not "route," of any number. Here's a link to a website which explains how it's done:

To find more, just google "square root algorithm."

Answer 5

3 time 3 = 6 is a square root of 3

2 times 2 = 4 is the square root of 2

Answer 6

with your calculator. it helps if you can remeber the perfect squares (4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100.....)

Answer 7

that one at the top lied to you 6 is not a square root its just a number multiplied by itself

Answer 8

Us squares like to have fun just like you hip cats man.

Answer 9

1*1=1
2*2=4
3*3=9
4*4=16
5*5=25
6*6=36
7*7=49
8*8=64
9*9=81
10*10=100
11*11=121
12*12=144
