Sum of the first 35 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 35 square numbers, you ask? Here we will give you the formula to calculate the first 35 square numbers and then we will show you how to calculate the first 35 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 35 square numbers, we enter n = 35 into our formula to get this:

   
35(35 + 1) × (2(35) + 1)
 
   
6
 

First, calculate each section of the numerator: 35(35 + 1) equals 1260 and (2(35) + 1) equals 71. Therefore, the problem above becomes this:

   
1260 × 71
 
   
6
 

Next, we calculate 1260 times 71 which equals 89460. Now our problem looks like this:

   
89460
 
   
6
 

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

89460 ÷ 6 = 14910

There you go. The sum of the first 35 square numbers is 14910.
