3 perfect squares (Posted on 2023-08-01) Difficulty: 4 of 5
I have written down three different 5-digit perfect squares, which :
* between them use five different digits.
* each of the five digits is used a different number of times
* the five numbers of times being the same as the five digits of the perfect squares.
* no digit is used its own number of times.
* If you knew which digit I have used just once, you could deduce my three squares with certainty.

What are the three perfect squares?
