Example 2: Approximating Square Roots to the Nearest Hundredth
Approximate to the nearest hundredth. Step 1 Find the value of the whole number. 121 < 135 < 144 Find the perfect squares nearest 135. 121 < 135 < 144 Find the square roots of the perfect squares. 11 < 135 < 12 The number will be between 11 and 12. The whole number part of the answer is 11.

Example 2 Continued Approximate to the nearest hundredth. Step 2 Find the value of the decimal. Find the difference between the given number, 135, and the lower perfect square. 135 – 121 = 14 Find the difference between the greater perfect square and the lower perfect square. 144 – 121 = 23 1423 Write the difference as a ratio. Divide to find the approximate decimal value. 14 ÷ 23 ≈ 0.609

Approximate 135 to the nearest hundredth.
Example 2 Continued Approximate to the nearest hundredth. Step 3 Find the approximate value. Combine the whole number and decimal. = ≈ 11.61 Round to the nearest hundredth. The approximate value of to the nearest hundredth is
