Have you ever wondered why a square root is called 'square root' ? Do you know what a square root is ? If you don't, then keep on reading to learn an answer. A square root is if you divide by something and get the answer that you divided with. For example, if I had the number 64. Obviously, I can multiply 32 x 2 but those numbers aren't the same. The number it could be is 8 because 8 x 8 = 64. Lets try another one. If I had the number 49, the answer would be seven because 7 x 7 = 49. There are man different square roots. Here is just a list of some : 
1 x 1 = 1
2 x 2 = 4 
3 x 3 = 9 
4 x 4 = 16
5 x 5 = 25
These are just some but there are many! This is what square roots are.
