Problem
When Yunji added all the integers from to , she mistakenly left out a number. Her incorrect sum turned out to be a square number. What number did Yunji leave out?
Solution 1
The sum of the numbers from to is Denote the number left out when adding to be . Thus, is a perfect square. We also know that must be between and inclusive. We can now start to find the closest perfect square to 45. We can immediately see that 36 is the closest, so we can just subtract both numbers to get our final answer of .
