Year Yearn 6 (Posted on 2023-12-11) Difficulty: 3 of 5
It is evident that: 2023= 7*172. Thus, 2023 is expressible in the form P*QR2.
Determine the three integers following 2023 having this property.
What are the three integers preceding 2023 that have this property?

        1936 = 4 * 22^2
        1944 = 6 * 18^2
        2000 = 5 * 20^2
         
        2025 = 1 * 45^2
        2025 = 9 * 15^2
        2028 = 3 * 26^2


based on

ylist=double.empty(0,3);
for p=1:9
  for qr=10:99
    qrs=qr^2;
    y=p*qrs;
    if y>1900 && y<2200
      ylist(end+1,:)=[y,p,qr];
    end
  end
end
ylist=sortrows(ylist,1)

finds

        1922           2          31
        1936           1          44
