cristiann · Answer

You have to square them:
3.30^2,
3.31^2
etc
then you have to choose the biggest number which is less than 11

phi · Answer

sqrt(11) = 3.31662479
see the 1 in the hundreths position?  look at the number after it

anonymous · Answer

yes it's a 6 (:

Awe XDlHello Phi's your only hope...& mine to...:( were guna work him to death D:

phi · Answer

when you round, you drop all the numbers after the hundreths.  That is why we are doing this, to make the number simpler.

anonymous · Answer

So 3.326?
or 3.32?

anonymous · Answer

3.32 right? (:

phi · Answer

you start with
sqrt(11) = 3.31662479
then find the hundreths spot (it is 1).  Look at the number after the 1. It is 6
write
3.32
(change the 1 to a 2.  Drop all the other numbers)
