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

You have to add the sum of the numbers 1 through 9, which is 45. After that, you can use the elimination method with subtraction to each number to determine that the answer is 9. -TheRealEinstein24
