Explanation
In order to find the estimated integer of a square root, you simply find the perfect squares closest to the specified square root. For example, the closest perfect squares to [tex]\sqrt{46}[/tex] are [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex] and [tex]\sqrt{49}[/tex]. Now, we need to find which perfect square is the closest between those two. 46 and 36 have a difference of 10, while 46 and 49 have a difference of 3. So, we know that 49 is the closest perfect square. Now, we simplify
