To summarize the findings you've made about the square root of 46, we can break it down as follows:

1. **Estimate**:
- You correctly determined that \(\sqrt{46}\) lies between the whole numbers 6 and 7, since \(6^2 = 36\) and \(7^2 = 49\).

2. **More precise estimate**:
- You then narrowed it down to between 6.7 and 6.8 because:
- \(6.7^2 = 44.89\)
- \(6.8^2 = 46.24\)

3. **Even more precise estimate**:
- Finally, you assessed that \(\sqrt{46}\) lies between 6.78 and 6.79 because:
- \(6.78^2 = 45.9684\)
- \(6.79^2 = 46.1041\)

Conclusively, you have shown that \(\sqrt{46}\) is indeed between 6.78 and 6.79. If you were to continue this process, you could further narrow it down.

4. **Conclusion**:
- Based on your calculations, the value of \(\sqrt{46}\) is approximately **6.782** (to three decimal places) or could be presented as \(6.78\) when rounded to two decimal places.

You can state:
"If we were to continue this process, it would provide a more precise approximation of \(\sqrt{46}\) because \(\sqrt{46}\) is between 6.78 and 6.79."

For practical purposes, the approximate value of \(\sqrt{46}\) is **approximately 6.78** (to two decimal places).
