13² = 169 14² = 196 13.5² = 13*14 + 0.25 = 182.25 which is greater than 175 so 13 < √175 < 13.5 Hence the closest integer to the square root of √175 is 13.

Is it 10? Lets see: 10*10 = 100. Not that close. Or 11? Lets see: 11*11 = 121. A little closer. How about 20: 20*20 = 400. Thats much farther. How about 12 then? 12*12 = ? Try a few more... Which one is the closest?
