<p>The<a>square</a>root is the inverse<a>of</a>the square of the<a>number</a>. 448 is not a<a>perfect square</a>. The square root of 448 is expressed in both radical and<a>exponential form</a>. In the radical form, it is expressed as √448, whereas (448)^(1/2) in the exponential form. √448 ≈ 21.166, 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 448, we need to group it as 48 and 4.</p>
21
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to find n whose square is 4. We can say n is ‘2’ because 2 x 2 is equal to 4. Now the<a>quotient</a>is 2 after subtracting 4 from 4, the<a>remainder</a>is 0.</p>

22
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 48, which is the new<a>dividend</a>. Add the old<a>divisor</a>with the same number, 2 + 2, to get 4, which will be our new divisor.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now let us bring down 48, which is the new<a>dividend</a>. Add the old<a>divisor</a>with the same number, 2 + 2, to get 4, which will be our new divisor.</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be part of finding 4n ≤ 48. Let us consider n as 1, now 4 x 1 = 4.</p>
22
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>The new divisor will be part of finding 4n ≤ 48. Let us consider n as 1, now 4 x 1 = 4.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 48 from 4; the difference is 44, and the quotient is 21.</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 48 from 4; the difference is 44, and the quotient is 21.</p>
25
<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Since the dividend is<a>less than</a>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 4400.</p>

<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Now we need to find a new divisor that is 42 because 421 ✖ 9 = 3789.</p>
25
<p><strong>Step 7:</strong>Now we need to find a new divisor that is 42 because 421 ✖ 9 = 3789.</p>
