Question

What is the least number that should be added to 6200 to make it a perfect square?

Chart
Sum

Solution

Given: 6200

  78
7 `bar62` `bar00`
  49
148 1300
  1184
  116

Hence, (78)2 = 6084 < 6200

Next perfect sqaure is (79)2 = 6241

Hence, the least number is (6241 – 6200 = 41), which should be added to 6200 to get a perfect square and the required perfect square number will be 6241

Then, `sqrt(6241) = sqrt(41 xx 41)` = 41
