Correct Answer: 100489
Solution :
The least six-digit number is 100000.
Using the long division method to find its square root, we see that it is not a perfect square.
⇒ (316)
2
= (100000 – 144) = 99856, a 5-digit number.
But (317)
2
= 100489, a 6-digit number.
Therefore, the smallest six-digit number which is also a perfect square is 100489.
Hence, the correct answer is 100489.
