<p>The<a>square</a>root is the inverse<a>of</a>the square of the<a>number</a>. 510 is not a<a>perfect square</a>. The square root of 510 is expressed in both radical and<a>exponential form</a>. In the radical form, it is expressed as √510, whereas (510)(1/2) in the exponential form. √510 ≈ 22.58318, which is an<a>irrational number</a>because it cannot be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are<a>integers</a>and q ≠ 0.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 510, we group it as 10 and 5.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 510, we group it as 10 and 5.</p>
21
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to find n whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 5. We can say n is ‘2’ because 2 x 2 = 4, which is lesser than 5. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 2; after subtracting 4 from 5, the<a>remainder</a>is 1.</p>

22
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 10, making the new<a>dividend</a>110. Add the old<a>divisor</a>with the quotient: 2 + 2 = 4, which will be our new divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 10, making the new<a>dividend</a>110. Add the old<a>divisor</a>with the quotient: 2 + 2 = 4, which will be our new divisor.</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be the sum of the dividend and quotient. Now we get 4n as the new divisor; we need to find the value of n.</p>
22
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be the sum of the dividend and quotient. Now we get 4n as the new divisor; we need to find the value of n.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>The next step is finding 4n × n ≤ 110. Let us consider n as 2; now 42 x 2 = 84.</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>The next step is finding 4n × n ≤ 110. Let us consider n as 2; now 42 x 2 = 84.</p>
25
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 84 from 110; the difference is 26, and the quotient is 22.</p>
24
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 84 from 110; the difference is 26, and the quotient is 22.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a decimal point. Adding the decimal point allows us to add two zeroes to the dividend. Now the new dividend is 2600.</p>

<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Now we need to find the new divisor that is 449 because 449 x 5 = 2245.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Now we have to find the closest perfect squares to √510. The smallest perfect square less than 510 is 484, and the largest perfect square<a>greater than</a>510 is 529. √510 falls somewhere between 22 and 23.</p>

34
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to apply the<a>formula</a>that is (Given number - smallest perfect square) / (Greater perfect square - smallest perfect square). Using the formula (510 - 484) ÷ (529 - 484) = 26 ÷ 45 ≈ 0.577. Using the formula, we identified the<a>decimal</a>point of our square root.</p>
