Question

Identify  


`√(11)`
as either rational or irrational, and approximate to the tenths place.

Answer 1

3.3

Explanation:

Because √11 cannot be re-written as the ratio of two integers, it's irrational.

Using a calculator, we find that √11 = 3.3166. We must round this off to the nearest tenths place: 3.3.
