Find the square root of decimal 5.76.

  1. $4.2$

  2. $2.4$

  3. $18.4$

  4. $4.23$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$576=2^{6} \times 3^{6}=(2^{3} \times3)^2=(24)^{2}$

$100=2^{2} \times 5^{2}=(2 \times5)^{2}=(10)^{2}$
$\sqrt{5.76}=\sqrt{\dfrac{576}{100}}$=$\sqrt{({\dfrac{24}{10}})^{2}}$
$=\dfrac{24}{10}=2.4$

The square root of $144$ is 

  1. $114$

  2. $442$

  3. $12$

  4. $24$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$144 = 2\times2\times2\times2\times 3\times3$

$\sqrt{144} = \sqrt{2\times2\times2\times2\times 3\times3}=2\times2\times3=12$

Find the square root of $81$.

  1. $9$

  2. $45$

  3. $18$

  4. $81$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$ 81 = 3\times3\times3\times3$

$\sqrt{ 81} = \sqrt{3\times3\times3\times3}=3\times3=9$

Complete the repeated subtraction to find the square root of $225$.

  1. $9$

  2. $45$

  3. $25$

  4. $15$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$225 -1 = 224$ ,

$224 -3 = 221 $,
$221-  5 = 216$, 
$216 -7 = 209$,
$209 - 9= 200$ ,
$200 -11 = 189$
$189-  13 = 176$ , 
$176-  15 = 161$, 
$161 -17 = 144$,
$144- 19 = 125$
$125 - 21 = 104 $
$ 104-  23 = 81 $
$81-  25 = 56$
$ 56-  27 = 29$, 
$29 -29 = 0 = 15$ 
Therefore, D is the correct answer.

Simplify the following : $\sqrt { 0.0081 } $

  1. $0.02$

  2. $0.09$

  3. $0.06$

  4. $0.05$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
$0.09$: Since $(0.09)(0.09)=0.0081$, 

$\sqrt{0.0081}=0.09$. 

You can also rewrite $0.0081$ as $81\times {10}^{-4}$

$\sqrt { 81\times { 10 }^{ -4 } } =\sqrt { 81 } \times \sqrt { { 10 }^{ -4 } } =9\times { \left( { 10 }^{ -4 } \right)  }^{ \frac { 1 }{ 2 }  }=9\times { 10 }^{ -2 }=0.09$

Which of the following is the value of $\displaystyle \sqrt { \sqrt [ 3 ]{ 0.000064 }  } $ ?

  1. $0.004$

  2. $0.008$

  3. $0.02$

  4. $0.04$

  5. $0.2$


Correct Option: E
Explanation:

$\sqrt[3]{0.000064}$$=$$0.04$

$\sqrt{0.04}$$=$$0.2$
 $\therefore \displaystyle \sqrt { \sqrt [ 3 ]{ 0.000064 }  } =0.2$
Hence, Option E is correct.

= 2

Find the square root of 841.

  1. 21

  2. 28

  3. 29

  4. 25


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$\sqrt{841}= \sqrt{29 \times 29}$
So, the square root of 841 is 29.

Subtracting which odd number will get the value of 288 for the square root of the number 484 using repeated subtraction method?

  1. 25

  2. 23

  3. 27

  4. 29


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Repeated subtraction method: Subtract successive odd numbers from the given number starting from 1 till the difference becomes zero.
So, 484 - 1 = 483
483 - 3 = 480
480 - 5 = 475
475 - 7 = 468
468 - 9 = 459
459 - 11 = 448
448 - 13 = 435
435 - 15 = 420
420 - 17 = 403
403 - 19 = 384
384 - 21 = 363
363 - 23 = 340
340 - 25 = 315
315 - 27 = 288 
27 is the odd number, subtracting with 315 to get the value of 288.
