Sum of the first 1632 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 1632 square numbers, you ask? Here we will give you the formula to calculate the first 1632 square numbers and then we will show you how to calculate the first 1632 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 1632 square numbers, we enter n = 1632 into our formula to get this:

		1632(1632 + 1) × (2(1632) + 1)
		6

First, calculate each section of the numerator: 1632(1632 + 1) equals 2665056 and (2(1632) + 1) equals 3265. Therefore, the problem above becomes this:

		2665056 × 3265
		6

Next, we calculate 2665056 times 3265 which equals 8701407840. Now our problem looks like this:

		8701407840
		6

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

8701407840 ÷ 6 = 1450234640

There you go. The sum of the first 1632 square numbers is 1450234640.
