Open in App
Solution
If the question is in reference to the number of integers lying between the squares of 15 and 16,
We can solve it as follows:
(15)square = 225
(16)square = 256
The integers lying between their squares are = (256 - 225) - 1 = 30
Since we want to count the number of integers lying BETWEEN the squares of 15 and 16, we subtracted the additional 1 to avoid counting 256 as an integer.
