<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 7488, we need to group it as 88 and 74.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 7488, we need to group it as 88 and 74.</p>
20
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to find n whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 74. We can choose n as ‘8’ because 8 x 8 = 64 is less than 74. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 8, and after subtracting 64 from 74, the<a>remainder</a>is 10.</p>

21
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Bring down 88, making the new<a>dividend</a>1088. Add the old<a>divisor</a>8 to itself to get 16, which will be part of our new divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Bring down 88, making the new<a>dividend</a>1088. Add the old<a>divisor</a>8 to itself to get 16, which will be part of our new divisor.</p>
22
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be 16n. We need to find n such that 16n x n is less than or equal to 1088. Choosing n as 6, we find 16 x 6 x 6 = 576.</p>
21
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be 16n. We need to find n such that 16n x n is less than or equal to 1088. Choosing n as 6, we find 16 x 6 x 6 = 576.</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 576 from 1088 to get 512, and the quotient becomes 86.</p>
22
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 576 from 1088 to get 512, and the quotient becomes 86.</p>
24
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a<a>decimal</a>point, allowing us to bring down two zeros. The new dividend becomes 51200.</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a<a>decimal</a>point, allowing us to bring down two zeros. The new dividend becomes 51200.</p>
25
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Now we find a new divisor, 172, such that 172n x n is less than or equal to 51200. Choosing n as 2, we find 172 x 2 x 2 = 688.</p>
24
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Now we find a new divisor, 172, such that 172n x n is less than or equal to 51200. Choosing n as 2, we find 172 x 2 x 2 = 688.</p>
26
<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Subtract 688 from 51200 to get 50512, and continue this process until the desired accuracy is achieved. So the square root of √7488 is approximately 86.52.</p>

<p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Subtract 688 from 51200 to get 50512, and continue this process until the desired accuracy is achieved. So the square root of √7488 is approximately 86.52.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, find the closest perfect squares to 7488. The closest perfect squares are 7225 (85^2) and 7569 (87^2). √7488 falls between 85 and 87.</p>

30
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Apply the<a>formula</a>: (Given number - smaller perfect square) / (larger perfect square - smaller perfect square). Using the formula (7488 - 7225) / (7569 - 7225) = 263 / 344 = 0.7645.</p>

31
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Adding this to the smaller perfect square root gives 85 + 0.7645 ≈ 85.76. So, the approximate square root of 7488 using this method is about 85.76.</p>
