The square root of 3 (approximately 1.732) is located on the number line between 1 and 2. Specifically, it is closer to 2 but still less than 2. If you're marking it on a number line:
- 1.5 (which is halfway between 1 and 2) would be closer to it, but you would position \(\sqrt{3}\) a bit to the right of 1.5, but before reaching 2.
This gives you a rough idea of where \(\sqrt{3}\) falls on a number line.
