Question 96564: We have to classificate each number as either a natural number, whole number, integers,rational number, terminating decimal or irrational number.
The ones I have trouble in are the ones that are square roots. For example what would the square root of 49 be? am I classificating the number 7, or am I supposed to classificate it as a square root? I'm so confused
Thank you for your time
