integer values

[FMMurphy]

What are they looking for if the question says Tell what two integer values the expression lies between. Explain ho you know. I have like 20 of these to do but I don't know what they want. For example the square root of 52. Do they want like it is between 7.21 and 7.22 which would be 51.98 and 52.12. I just don't know what they are looking for?

\(\displaystyle 7 < \sqrt{52} < 8\) because ...

\(\displaystyle \sqrt{49} < \sqrt{52} < \sqrt{64}\)

that's all "they" want.
