What whole number is the closest to the square root of 8?
The nearest whole number would be 3. The square root of 8 is approximately 2.82842712474619
Is the square root of 12 a whole number?
No, it is in between 3 and 4
What is a rational number whose square root is a whole number?
If the square root is a whole number, then the square of the square root, the original number, is also a whole number; all whole numbers can be expressed as themselves over 1, and so are rational numbers. The answer is thus any square number, ie the square of the natural numbers: 1 (1²), 4 (2²), 9 (3²), 16 (4²), etc.
What whole number does the square root of 3 fall between?
The square root of 3 falls between 1 and 2. (It is closer to 2 though)
Is the square root of 9 a whole number?
Yes. The square root of 9 is 3.
Can a square root be a whole number?
Yes. The square of a whole number is always a whole number. For example, 3 squared is 9, so the square root of 9 is 3. What you never have, is the square root of a whole number being a fraction that is not a whole number. The square root of a whole number is either a whole number or an irrational number. For example, the square root of 2 is irrational, because there are no 2 whole numbers a and b such that a/b squared is 2. This is not terribly difficult to prove, but I have already said too much; I have answered your question.

How do you check if a number is a perfect square?
For a number to be a perfect square, the number's square root has to be a whole number. 9 is a perfect square because its square root is a whole number, 3. If the square root of the number is a decimal, then it is not a perfect square. For example, 13 does not divide evenly so it not a perfect square.
Is square root of 9 a whole number?
Yes, it is +3 or -3
Is the square root of -9 a natural whole integer rational or irrational number?
It is none of those because the square root of -9 is an imaginary number but the square root of 9 is 3 which is a rational integer or whole number
What whole number is the closest to the square root of 10?
3
Is 3 a perfect square?
No. to be a perfect square, you have to be able to square root it and get a whole number (NOT a decimal) the square root of 3 is 1.732. (1.7322 = 3) a perfect square is a number like 4 the square root of four is 2 (22 = 4)
Is the square root of 12 a whole number?
No, it is in between 3 and 4

What whole number does the square root of 3 fall between?
The square root of 3 falls between 1 and 2. (It is closer to 2 though)
What is the square root of 3 times the square root of 3?
3. The square root of a number is the number that when multiplied by itself, will give you the original number. Therefore, if you multiply the square root of three by itself, you will get three. A more clear example using whole numbers: the square root of nine times the square root of nine is three times three, which gives you nine, your original number.
