Abacus steps to solve Square root of 164,836
(Answer is 406)
"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.
164836 -> (16|48|36) : 16 is the 1st group number. The root digits is 3.
![]()
Step 1: Set 164836. 1st group is 16.
![]()
Step 2: Square number smaller than or equal to 16 is 16=4^2. 4 is the 1st root.
![]()
Step 3: Subtract 4^2 from the 1st group 16. 16-16=00
![]()
Step 4: Place 8 which is 2x of 1st root 4. This 8 is double root. Focus on 48.
![]()
Step 5: Cannot divide 04 by 8. Place 0 on E as 2nd root.
![]()
Step 6: Divide 483 by double root 80.
![]()
Step 7: Answer is 6 and this is 3rd root.
![]()
Step 8: Place 483-80x6=003 on GHI.
![]()
Step 9: Subtract square of 3rd root 6 from 36 on IJ.
![]()
Step 10: Place 36-6x6=00 on IJ.
![]()
Step 11: Square root of 164836 is 406.
![]()
