Using rational approximations, what is an inequality statement comparing √91 and √98? Enter <,>, or =.
<
Write 2,468 in expanded form.
2,468 in expanded form is:
2,000 + 400 + 60 + 8
To compare √91 and √98 using rational approximations, we can find the square roots using a calculator.
√91 ≈ 9.539
√98 ≈ 9.899
Comparing these rational approximations, we see that 9.539 < 9.899.
Therefore, the inequality statement comparing √91 and √98 is √91 < √98.
