Solution

Let the decimal fraction be x.

When a decimal fraction is multiplied by itself, then product = x × x = x2

But product = 84.64   ...[Given]

∴ x2 = 84.64

⇒ x = `sqrt(84.64)`

Now, place the bar over the numbers, then square root is given below.

  9.2
9 `bar84. bar64`
  81
182 364
  364
  0

∴ x = `sqrt(84.64)` = 9.2

Hence, the required decimal is 9.2.
