How many non-square numbers lie between the following pairs of numbers:
(i) 1002 and 1012 (ii) 902 and 912
(iii) 10002 and 10012

Solution

(i) Between 1002 and 1012
Here, n=100 ∴  n x2 = 100 x 2 = 200

200 non-square numbers lie between 1002 and 1012 .
(ii)  Between 902 and 912
Here, n=90  ∴  2 x n = 2 x 90 or 180

  180 non-square numbers lie between 90 and 91.

(iii)  Between 10002 and 10012
Here, n = 1000           2 x n = 2 x 1000 or 2000
  2000 non-square lie between 10002 and 10012.
