Number of 1’s = 2 0 2 0 1 1 1 1 1 ⋯ 1 1 1 1 1 Number of 5’s = 2 0 1 9 5 5 5 5 5 ⋯ 5 5 5 5 5 6
Is the number above a perfect square?

The inspiration to this problem, it came to my mind that 3 4 2 = 1 1 5 6 , 3 3 4 2 = 1 1 1 5 5 6 , 3 3 3 4 2 = 1 1 1 1 5 5 5 6 and so on. I still need to find a logical solution that works for a general case.
Number of 1’s=2020 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 . . . 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 Number of 5’s=2019 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 . . . 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 6
= 2 * 2020 1 1 1 1 1 . . . 1 1 1 1 1 + 2020 4 4 4 4 4 . . . 4 4 4 4 4 + 1
= 9 1 0 2 ⋅ 2 0 2 0 − 1 + 4 ⋅ 9 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 + 1
= 9 1 0 2 ⋅ 2 0 2 0 − 1 − 2 ⋅ 9 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 + 2 ⋅ 3 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 + 1
= 9 1 0 2 ⋅ 2 0 2 0 − 1 − 2 ( 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 ) + 2 ⋅ 3 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 + 1
= 9 1 0 2 ⋅ 2 0 2 0 − 2 ⋅ 1 0 2 0 2 0 + 1 + 2 ⋅ 3 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 + 1
= ( 3 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 ) 2 + 2 ⋅ 3 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 + 1
= ( 3 1 0 2 0 2 0 − 1 + 1 ) 2
Thank you, nice solution.

Consider a number A n = Number of 1’s = n 1 1 1 1 1 ⋯ 1 1 1 1 1 = k = 0 ∑ n − 1 1 0 k = 9 1 0 n − 1 . Then
n 3 3 3 ⋯ 3 4 2 = ( 3 0 A n + 4 ) 2 = 9 0 0 A n 2 + 2 4 0 A n + 1 6 = 9 0 0 ( 9 1 0 n − 1 ) A n + 2 4 0 A n + 1 6 = 1 0 0 ( 1 0 n − 1 ) A n + 2 4 0 A n + 1 6 = 1 0 n + 2 A n + 1 0 0 A n + 4 0 A n + 1 6 = n 1 1 1 ⋯ 1 n + 2 0 0 0 ⋯ 0 + n 1 1 1 ⋯ 1 0 0 + n 4 4 4 ⋯ 4 0 + 1 6 = n + 1 1 1 1 ⋯ 1 n 5 5 5 ⋯ 5 6
Put n = 2 0 1 9 and it is "Yes" .
