Call the integer square roots of the specified pair of numbers l and g for lesser and greater respectively. Then, from the problem statement, g2 - l2 = 105. Possible values for l2 are successively 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144, 169, .... , and corresponding values for g2 are 106, 109, 114, 121, ... etc. The first of the latter series that is a perfect square number is 121. Therefore, the square numbers are 121 and 16.
