For n to be a perfect square n = m2 where m can have one of the values 1, 2, 3, ...
1, 2, 3, ... are the counting numbers.
There are an infinite number of counting numbers, so there are an infinite number of perfect squares (n = m2).

Why is a number a perfect square?
you can multiply two whole numbers together to get that. if you use graph paper, you could make a perfect square. the area of that square is called a perfect square because you can make a perfect square using that many units as the area. for example 4x4=16, so 16 would be the perfect square.
What is the greatest perfect square possible?
There is no limit to the number of perfect squares. To find a perfect square, you simply need to pick a number and square it. E.g. 7^2=49, so 49 is a perfect square. As there is infinitely many numbers to pick, and as the larger a number the larger it's square, there are infinitely many perfect squares and they just keep on getting larger!
What is the difference between square roots and a perfect square?
The square root of a perfect square is a whole number. Example sqrt(36) = 6 so 36 is a perfect square Example sqrt(25) = 5 so 25 is a perfect square Example sqrt(8)= 2.828 which is not whole so 8 is not a perfect square
Is 51 a perfect square or not?
51 is not a perfect square. 72 = 49 82 = 64 51 is between 49 and 64 so its square root is 7+a bit, and it is not a perfect square.
Is 160 a perfect square?
no, 12 squared is 144 and 13 squared is 169. so no it is not a perfect square
Is zero is the perfect square?
No. There are infinitely many perfect squares so there is no "the" perfect square.
How many perfect squares are there between 100 and 1000?
100 is a perfect square of 10.The square root of 1000 is 31.6blahblahblah, so the square of 31 is less than 1000 and the square of 32 is more than 1000.That means the perfect squares between (not including) 100 and 1000 are the squares of 11 through 31, a total of 21 different values.

Is 0.25 not a perfect square?
0.25=0.52 so 0.25 IS a perfect square
Is 164 a perfect square?
no. 64 is a perfect square and so is 100 but because the property that connects those two numbers is addition it is not a perfect square.
How do you check if a number is a perfect square?
For a number to be a perfect square, the number's square root has to be a whole number. 9 is a perfect square because its square root is a whole number, 3. If the square root of the number is a decimal, then it is not a perfect square. For example, 13 does not divide evenly so it not a perfect square.
