Step-by-step explanation:
Which is the closest to 6
![\sqrt{34}](/tpl/images/0792/6557/2f895.png)
![\sqrt{39\\](/tpl/images/0792/6557/dfe78.png)
![\sqrt{35](/tpl/images/0792/6557/55e51.png)
or ![\sqrt{38}](/tpl/images/0792/6557/83e77.png)
So, find the square root of each ( I suggest using a calculator)
![\sqrt{34} = 5.83\\\sqrt{39} = 6.24\\\sqrt{35} = 5.91 \\\sqrt{38} = 6.16](/tpl/images/0792/6557/46f7d.png)
Which is closest? Let's see.
6 - 5.83 = 0.17
6.24 - 6 = 0.24
6 - 5.91 = 0.09
6.16 - 6 = 0.16
Find the smallest #
0.09 is the smallest, so 5.91 is the closest. Square the #, we get ![\sqrt{35}](/tpl/images/0792/6557/2ebb6.png)
Hope this helps! =D
