Question 82185: Use a calculator to approximate √70 to the nearest hundredth.
When I do this I get 8.3666 or 8.37?
But the choices I have are 7.66, 7.81, 8.04 and 8.16 ? What am I doing wrong? Answer by vertciel(183) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hello there,
Are you sure it is √70? If it is, your answer should be 8.37. The calculator gives you 8.3666600265. The first 3 after the decimal point is the tenths digit, and the 6 after is hundredths digit, so your answer can only have 2 decimal places (up to the hundredths place).
