Answer:
The two consecutive whole numbers that the √50 is between are 7 and 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root of any number can be determined by finding a number which when multiplied by itself gives that number.
Let us look at the squares of some numbers:
[tex]2^{2} =4[/tex]
[tex]3^{2} =9[/tex]
[tex]4^{2} =16[/tex]
[tex]5^{2} =25.[/tex]
[tex]6^{2} =36[/tex]
[tex]7^{2} =49[/tex]
[tex]8^{2} =64[/tex]
50 lies between 49 and 64.
Hence the two consecutive whole numbers that the √50 is between are 7 and 8.
