Determine the largest integer whose square is less than or equal to .
 √
Square the value above the line and place it under the term like in a long division problem.
 √
Subtract from to get .
 √
Bring down the next two digits of the radicand. Since there are no more significant digits, insert .
 √
Double the number above the radicand and write it down followed by a blank space , inside parentheses. Then, multiply it by .
 √ ( ) ·
Find the largest integer value that could replace the and be placed in the next position above the radical so when the two numbers are multiplied it is less than the current remainder of . In this case works because , which is less than .
 √ ( ) ·
