    The nearest perfect square that is less than 22 is 16, whose square root is 4.

    Add the square root from step 1 to 3/4 to get 4.75.

    Calculate the quantity one-half times the square of divided by the value found in step 2, or 4.75. (1/2 * (3/4) ^2) : 4.75 = 0.06.

    Subtract the value found in step 3 from the value found in step 2, or 4.75.

    The approximate value of √22 is 4.69.
