Sum of the first 210 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 210 square numbers, you ask? Here we will give you the formula to calculate the first 210 square numbers and then we will show you how to calculate the first 210 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 210 square numbers, we enter n = 210 into our formula to get this:

		210(210 + 1) × (2(210) + 1)
		6

First, calculate each section of the numerator: 210(210 + 1) equals 44310 and (2(210) + 1) equals 421. Therefore, the problem above becomes this:

		44310 × 421
		6

Next, we calculate 44310 times 421 which equals 18654510. Now our problem looks like this:

		18654510
		6

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

18654510 ÷ 6 = 3109085

There you go. The sum of the first 210 square numbers is 3109085.
