Question

find the greatest and least number of six digits which are perfect squares find the square root​

Answer 1

Answer:

The smallest 6 digit number is 100000 We find the square root of 100000 with a calculator: = 316.227766 We take the next larger whole number 317 We square 317 317² = 100489 That's the smallest perfect square which is a 6-digit number, because when we square 316 we only get 99856, which is only a 5-digit number.

Answer 2

• Let us try 999999. The square root of 999999 = 999.9995, which is not a perfect square root.

• The nearest number is 999 and its square = 998001.

• The greatest 6-digit number that is a perfect square is 998001 and its square root is 999
