Problem

When Yunji added all the integers from $1$ to $9$, she mistakenly left out a number. Her incorrect sum turned out to be a square number. What number did Yunji leave out?

$\textbf{(A) } 5\qquad\textbf{(B) } 6\qquad\textbf{(C) } 7\qquad\textbf{(D) } 8\qquad\textbf{(E) } 9$

Solution

The sum of the integers from $1$ to $9$ is $45$. Since the nearest square number less than $45$ is $36$, the answer is $45 - 36 = \boxed{9}.$
