Sum of the first 1326 square numbers

We define square numbers as numbers that when squared will equal a whole number. Thus, the list of the first square numbers starts with 1, 4, 9, 16, and so on.

What is the sum of the first 1326 square numbers, you ask? Here we will give you the formula to calculate the first 1326 square numbers and then we will show you how to calculate the first 1326 square numbers using the formula.

The formula to calculate the first n square numbers is displayed below:

		n(n + 1) × (2(n) + 1)
		6

To calculate the sum of the first 1326 square numbers, we enter n = 1326 into our formula to get this:

		1326(1326 + 1) × (2(1326) + 1)
		6

First, calculate each section of the numerator: 1326(1326 + 1) equals 1759602 and (2(1326) + 1) equals 2653. Therefore, the problem above becomes this:

		1759602 × 2653
		6

Next, we calculate 1759602 times 2653 which equals 4668224106. Now our problem looks like this:

		4668224106
		6

Finally, divide the numerator by the denominator to get our answer:

4668224106 ÷ 6 = 778037351

There you go. The sum of the first 1326 square numbers is 778037351.
