Find the square roots of 100 and 169 by the method of repeated subtraction.
Solution:
Using the method of repeated subtraction of consecutive odd numbers, we have
(i) 100 – 1 = 99, 99 – 3 = 96, 96 – 5 = 91, 91 – 7 = 84, 84 – 9 = 75, 75 – 11 = 64, 64 – 13 = 51, 51 – 15 = 36, 36 – 17 = 19, 19 – 19 = 0
(Ten times repetition)
Thus √100 = 10
(ii) 169 – 1 = 168, 168 – 3 = 165, 165 – 5 = 160, 160 – 7 = 153, 153 – 9 = 144, 144 – 11 = 133, 133 – 13 = 120, 120 – 15 = 105, 105 – 17 = 88, 88 – 19 = 69, 69 – 21 = 48, 48 – 23 = 25, 25 – 25 = 0
(Thirteen times repetition)
Thus √169 = 13

Ex 6.3 Class 8 Maths Question 7.
The students of class VIII of a school donated ₹ 2401 in all, for Prime Minister’s National Relief Fund. Each student donated as many rupees as the number of students in the class. Find the number of students in the class.
Solution:
Total amount of money donated = ₹ 2401
Total number of students in the class = √2401
= \(\sqrt { { 7 }^{ 2 }\times { 7 }^{ 2 } }\)
= \(\sqrt { { 7 }\times { 7\times 7\times 7 } }\)

= 49
Ex 6.3 Class 8 Maths Question 8.
2025 plants are to be planted in a garden in such a way that each row contains as many plants as the number of rows. Find the number of rows and the number of plants in each row.
Solution:
Total number of rows = Total number of plants in each row = √2025
= \(\sqrt { 3\times 3\times 3\times 3\times 5\times 5 }\)
= \(\sqrt { { 3 }^{ 2 }\times { 3 }^{ 2 }\times { 5 }^{ 2 } }\)
= 3 × 3 × 5
