[Set 2,401 on Mr. Square root]Zoom
[Japanese]
We will continue from where we ended in the last article, the actual solutions to calculate Square root using abacus. Today's example is Half-multiplication table method (Hankuku method), root is 2-digits case. We require 9 as root in the middle of calculation. Please check the Theory page for your reference. You can check the Index page of all articles.
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 2,401 (Answer is 49)
"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.
2,401 -> (24|01) : 24 is the 1st group number. The root digits is 2.
