Question

Between which two consecutive integers does the square root of 34 lie between
A) 5 and 6
B) 4 and 5
C) 7 and 8
D) 6 and 7

Answer 1

Answer:

B),4 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

A) 5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest but longest way to solve this would be to calculate the squares of every number.

5 squared is 25, and 6 squared is 36.

4 squared is 16, and 5 squared is 25.

7 squared is 49, and 8 squared is 64.

6 squared is 36, and 7 squared is 49.

Since 34 is in between 25 and 36, we can see that A, or 5 and 6, is the correct answer.

Hope this helps!
