You use the square root key on a calculator, or the sqrt() function in Excel. If you want to do it without a calculator, there are several methods; one that is fairly straightforward is trial and error: just try squaring different numbers until you get close enough. (Other methods may be faster, but are still iterative - you have to repeat the same steps several times, until you get sufficient precision.)

As your older brother, I've been where you are—maybe not exactly, but close enough.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
