<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 723, we need to group it as 23 and 7.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to find n whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 7. We can say n as ‘2’ because 2 x 2 = 4 is less than 7. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 2, and after subtracting 4 from 7, the<a>remainder</a>is 3.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 23, which is the new<a>dividend</a>. Add the old<a>divisor</a>with the same number 2 + 2, we get 4, which will be our new divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 23, which is the new<a>dividend</a>. Add the old<a>divisor</a>with the same number 2 + 2, we get 4, which will be our new divisor.</p>

<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 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>
6
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>The next step is finding 4n x n ≤ 323. Let us consider n as 8, now 48 x 8 = 384, which is more than 323, so we take n as 7, making 47 x 7 = 329.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>The next step is finding 4n x n ≤ 323. Let us consider n as 8, now 48 x 8 = 384, which is more than 323, so we take n as 7, making 47 x 7 = 329.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 329 from 323; we realize n = 6, making 46 x 6 = 276.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Subtract 329 from 323; we realize n = 6, making 46 x 6 = 276.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Subtracting 276 from 323, the difference is 47, and the quotient is 26.8.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Subtracting 276 from 323, the difference is 47, and the quotient is 26.8.</p>
9
<p><strong>Step 8:</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 zeros to the dividend. Now the new dividend is 4700.</p>

<p><strong>Step 8:</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 zeros to the dividend. Now the new dividend is 4700.</p>

<p><strong>Step 9:</strong>The new divisor is 536, because 536 x 8 = 4288.</p>

<p><strong>Step 9:</strong>The new divisor is 536, because 536 x 8 = 4288.</p>

<p><strong>Step 10:</strong>Subtracting 4288 from 4700, we get the result 412.</p>

<p><strong>Step 12:</strong>Continue doing these steps until we get two numbers after the decimal point, or continue until the remainder is zero.</p>

<p><strong>Step 12:</strong>Continue doing these steps until we get two numbers after the decimal point, or continue until the remainder is zero.</p>

<p>So the square root of √723 is approximately 26.851.</p>
