  • Answer

Given a positive integer kk, let ∥k∥\|k\| denote the absolute difference between kk and the nearest perfect square. For example, ∥13∥=3\|13\|=3 since the nearest perfect square to 13 is 16 . Compute the smallest positive integer nn such that

∥1∥+∥2∥+⋯+∥n∥n=100.\frac{\|1\|+\|2\|+\cdots+\|n\|}{n}=100 .
