Question

The square root of 1369 is 36.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B

False

To check whether 36 is a square root of 1369 or not we use long division. For that, we will group 2 numbers from right to left and then proceed with the division.

$\begin{array}{cc}& 37\\ 3& \overline{13}\overline{69}\\ & -9\\ 67& 469\\ & -469\\ & 0\end{array}$

From the calculations it is clear that, 36 is not a square root of 1369. It is 37.
