Squaring special numbers (6's and final 1)
|
|
- Choose a number with repeating 6's and a final 1.
- The square is made up of:
- one fewer 4 than there are repeating 6's
- 36
- two fewer 8's than there are repeating 6's
- A final 921
|
Example:
- If the number to be squared is 6661:
- The square has:
two 4's (one fewer than
repeating 6's) 4
4
Next digits: 36 3 6
one 8 (two fewer than repeating 6's) 8
A final 921
9 2 1
- So the square of 6661 is 44,368,921.
See the pattern?
- If the number to be squared is 666661:
- The square has:
four 4's (one fewer than
repeating 6's) 4
4 4 4
Next digits: 36 3 6
three 8's 8 8 8
A final 921
9 2 1
- So the square of 666661 is 44,4436,888,921.
