Best Answer

The square root of 47 is not a rational number. We know that 6 x 6 = 36 and 7 x 7 = 49, so the answer is between them. If we use a handheld or online calculator, we'll get 6.85565 for an approximate answer. And that plus or minus 6.85565 because the square root of a positive number always has the two answers.
The square root of 47 is an irrational number and it is about 6.8556546

Go 11.75 units of distance in any direction. Turn 90 degrees clockwise and go 11.75 units of distance in a straight line. Turn 90 degrees clockwise and go 11.75 units of distance in a straight line. Turn 90 degrees clockwise and go 11.75 units of distance in a straight line.

You will have travelled along a square route whose total distance is 47 units. Alternatively you could have turned counter clockwise each time.
