21
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now, find n whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 51. We can say n is 7 because 7 × 7 = 49, which is lesser than 51. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 7, and the<a>remainder</a>is 51 - 49 = 2.</p>

22
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Bring down 61, making the new<a>dividend</a>261. Add the old<a>divisor</a>with the same number: 7 + 7 = 14, which will be our new divisor's starting digits.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Find the largest digit x such that 14x × x ≤ 261. Let us consider x as 1, now 141 × 1 = 141.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 261 from 141; the difference is 120, and the quotient is 71.</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 261 from 141; the difference is 120, and the quotient is 71.</p>
25
<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 12000.</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 12000.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Now we have to find the closest perfect squares to √5161. The smallest perfect square less than 5161 is 4900 (70^2), and the largest perfect square<a>greater than</a>5161 is 5184 (72^2). √5161 falls somewhere between 70 and 72.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we apply the<a>formula</a>: (Given number - smallest perfect square) ÷ (Greater perfect square - smallest perfect square) (5161 - 4900) ÷ (5184 - 4900) = 261 ÷ 284 ≈ 0.919 Using the formula, we identified the decimal point of our square root. The next step is adding the value we got initially to the decimal number, which is 70 + 0.919 ≈ 70.919, so the approximate square root of 5161 is 71.85.</p>
