Question

The square root of 0.25 is 0.5 which is a greater number. Give another number whose square root is larger than the number and explain why.

Answer 1

Another example of a number who's square root is greater than the number is
`√(0.49)` which is 0.7

Explanation:

This square root is larger than the number because it is a decimal. When you multiply a decimal by a decimal, the decimal point becomes greater. For example: 0.7 multiplied by 0.7 equals 0.49 which has 2 decimal places, while 0.7 only has one.
