How to Find Square Root of 3125?

Square Root of 3125 by Long Division Method

Value of √3125 by Long Division Method

Explanation:

Forming pairs: 31 and 25
Find a number Y (5) such that whose square is <= 31. Now divide 31 by 5 with quotient as 5.
Bring down the next pair 25, to the right of the remainder 6. The new dividend is now 625.
Add the last digit of the quotient (5) to the divisor (5) i.e. 5 + 5 = 10. To the right of 10, find a digit Z (which is 5) such that 10Z × Z <= 625. After finding Z, together 10 and Z (5) form a new divisor 105 for the new dividend 625.
Divide 625 by 105 with the quotient as 5, giving the remainder = 625 - 105 × 5 = 625 - 525 = 100.
Now, let's find the decimal places after the quotient 55.
Bring down 00 to the right of this remainder 100. The new dividend is now 10000.
Add the last digit of quotient to divisor i.e. 5 + 105 = 110. To the right of 110, find a digit Z (which is 9) such that 110Z × Z <= 10000. Together they form a new divisor (1109) for the new dividend (10000).
Divide 10000 by 1109 with the quotient as 9, giving the remainder = 10000 - 1109 × 9 = 10000 - 9981 = 19.
Bring down 00 again. Repeat above steps for finding more decimal places for the square root of 3125.

Therefore, the square root of 3125 by long division method is 55.9 approximately.

Square Root of 3125 Solved Examples

Example 1: Solve the equation x² − 3125 = 0

Solution:

x² - 3125 = 0 i.e. x² = 3125
x = ±√3125
Since the value of the square root of 3125 is 55.902,
⇒ x = +√3125 or -√3125 = 55.902 or -55.902.
Example 2: If the area of an equilateral triangle is 3125√3 in². Find the length of one of the sides of the triangle.

Solution:

Let 'a' be the length of one of the sides of the equilateral triangle.
⇒ Area of the equilateral triangle = (√3/4)a² = 3125√3 in²
⇒ a = ±√12500 in
Since length can't be negative,
⇒ a = √12500 = 2 √3125
We know that the square root of 3125 is 55.902.
⇒ a = 111.803 in
Example 3: If the area of a circle is 3125π in². Find the radius of the circle.

Solution:

Let 'r' be the radius of the circle.
⇒ Area of the circle = πr² = 3125π in²
⇒ r = ±√3125 in
Since radius can't be negative,
⇒ r = √3125
The square root of 3125 is 55.902.
⇒ r = 55.902 in
