Explanation:
The given series is an AP with common difference of 7. So the terms in the above series are in the form of 2013 + 7k. We have to find the perfect squares in this format in the given series.
Given that 44^2 = 1936.
Shortcut: To find the next perfect square, add 45th odd number to 44^2.
So 45^2 = 1936 + (2 x 45 -1) = 2025
46^2 = 2025 + (2 x 46 - 1) = 2116
47^2 = 2116 + (2 x 47 - 1) = 2209
Now subtract 2013 from the above numbers and divide by 7. Only 2209 is in the format of 2013 + 7k. One number satisfies.
