<p><strong>Step 2 :</strong>Now, find the greatest number whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 75. Here, it is 8, Because 82=64 < 75.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3 :</strong>Now divide 75 by 8 (the number we got from Step 2) such that we get 8 as quotient and then multiply the divisor with the quotient, we get 64. Subtract 64 from 75, we get 11. Add a<a>decimal</a>point after the quotient 8, and bring down two zeroes and place it beside 11 to make it 1100.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Add 8 to same divisor, 8. We get 16.</p>

<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Add 8 to same divisor, 8. We get 16.</p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Now choose a number such that when placed at the end of 16, a 3-digit number will be formed. Multiply that particular number by the resultant number to get a number less than 1100. Here, that number is 6. </p>

<p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Now choose a number such that when placed at the end of 16, a 3-digit number will be formed. Multiply that particular number by the resultant number to get a number less than 1100. Here, that number is 6. </p>

<p>166×6=996<1100.</p>

<p>166×6=996<1100.</p>

<p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Do 1100-996=104. Again, bring down two zeroes and make 104 as 10400. Simultaneously add the unit’s place digit of 166, i.e., 6 with 166. We get here, 172. Apply Step 5 again and again until you reach 0. </p>

<p>We will show two places of precision here, and so, we are left with the remainder, 4400 (refer to the picture), after some iterations and keeping the division till here, at this point </p>
