Find the integers that have perfect squares on either side of your number.

For example if your number was 23, the square root would be between 4 and 5. Since 23 is closer to 25 than 16, the square root would be closer to 5. Then try some out.

4.9 is too high, 4.7 is too low, 4.8 is pretty close. 4.795 is even closer.
