[Set 4,761 on Mr. Square root]Zoom
[Japanese]
We will continue from where we ended in the last article, the article shows actual solutions to calculate Square root using abacus. Today's example is simple - basic Double-root method, root is 2-digits case. We require 9 as root in the middle of calculation. Please check the Theory page for your reference.
Square root methods: Double-root method, Double-root alternative method, half-multiplication table method, half-multiplication table alternative method, multiplication-subtraction method, constant number method, etc.
Abacus steps to solve Square root of 4,761 (Answer is 69)
"1st group number" is the left most numbers in the 2-digits groups of the given number for square root calculation. Number of groups is the number of digits of the Square root.
4761 -> (47|61) : 47 is the 1st group number. The root digits is 2.
![]()
Step 1: Set 4761. 1st group is 47.
![]()
Step 2: Square number equal to or smaller than 47 is 36=6^2. 6 is the 1st root. Place 12 which is 2x of 1st root 6. This 12 is double root.
![]()
Step 3: Subtract 6^2 from the 1st group 47. 47-36=11 : -a^2
![]()
Step 4: Focus on 116 and divide it by 12.
![]()
Step 5: Answer=9 and this is 2nd root. : /2a, Set 116-9x12=008 on EFG.
![]()
Step 6: Subtract 9^2=81 from 2nd group 81. 81-81=0 : -b^2
![]()
Step 7: Square root of 4761 is 69.
![]()
Final state: Answer 69
