Square Root Omniscience

14 = 3.5 x 4, which are the closest numbers I know of that equal it. If you want to take the square root of 14, the answer is between those 2. The closer the numbers to each other, the more exact the square root. The actual number is 3.741657387, which is slightly less than the average, the halfway point. If you take another number that has 2 numbers half a number away, like 33=5.5x6, the square root is almost the same, 3.744562647. The numbers grow father away from the halfway point the farther from each other they are, as follows:

48 (6x8) = 6.92820323
30 (6x5) = 5.477225575
180 (15x12) = 13.41640
786
