...the above, we infer the following RULE. 1. Distinguish the given number into periods of twofigures each, by putting a point over the place of units, another over the place of hundreds, and so on, which points show the number of figures the root will consist of. 2. Find the greatest square... | |

...Operation. Since we may not see what the root of 576 is at once, as in the last example, we will separate it into periods of two figures each, by putting a point over the 5, and also over the 6 ; that is, over the units' figure and over the hun576(24 4_ 44)176 176 dreds.... | |
