<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 523, it remains as 523.</p>

<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 as '2' because 2 x 2 = 4, which is lesser than 5. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 2, and the<a>remainder</a>is 1 after subtracting 5 - 4.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 23, making the new<a>dividend</a>123. Add the old<a>divisor</a>(2) with itself to get 4, which will be our new divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Now, we need to find a number n such that 4n x n is less than or equal to 123. Let n be 2, then 42 x 2 = 84.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Now, we need to find a number n such that 4n x n is less than or equal to 123. Let n be 2, then 42 x 2 = 84.</p>
6
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 84 from 123, the remainder is 39, and the partial quotient is 22.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 84 from 123, the remainder is 39, and the partial quotient is 22.</p>
7
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a<a>decimal</a>point. Adding the decimal point allows us to add two zeroes to the dividend. Now the new dividend is 3900.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a<a>decimal</a>point. Adding the decimal point allows us to add two zeroes to the dividend. Now the new dividend is 3900.</p>
8
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Now we need to find the new divisor. Using trial and error, we find the new divisor to be 445 because 445 x 9 = 4005, which is too large. Using 444 x 8 = 3552, which is closer.</p>

<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Subtract 3552 from 3900 to get 348.</p>

<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Subtract 3552 from 3900 to get 348.</p>

<p><strong>Step 9:</strong>Now the quotient is 22.8. Continue doing these steps until you get two numbers after the decimal point or until the remainder is zero.</p>

<p><strong>Step 9:</strong>Now the quotient is 22.8. Continue doing these steps until you get two numbers after the decimal point or until the remainder is zero.</p>

<p>So, the square root of √523 ≈ 22.85.</p>
