Estimate the difference
√50 - √10
4?
Yes!
thanks ☺
You're welcome.
To estimate the difference between √50 and √10, we can use the fact that both numbers are roughly between 7 and 8.
First, let's find the square root of 50. The square root of 49 is 7, so the square root of 50 is slightly bigger than 7.
Next, let's find the square root of 10. The square root of 9 is 3, so the square root of 10 is slightly bigger than 3.
Therefore, we can estimate that √50 - √10 is roughly 7 - 3, which simplifies to 4.
So, the estimated difference between √50 and √10 is approximately 4.
