N = 9999 9 2 = ( 1 0 5 1 ) 2 = 1 0 10 2 × 1 0 5 + 1 = 10 , 000 , 000 , 000 200 , 000 + 1 = 9 , 999 , 800 , 001 \begin{aligned} N & = 99999^2 \\ & = (10^5 -1)^2 \\ & = 10^{10}-2\times 10^5 + 1 \\ & = 10,000,000,000 - 200,000 + 1 \\ & = \boxed{9,999,800,001} \end{aligned}

There is a algorithm.

9 2 \large9^{2} = 81 \large81

9 9 2 \large99^{2} = 9801 \large9801

99 9 2 \large999^{2} = 998001 \large998001

999 9 2 \large9999^{2} = 99980001 \large99980001

9999 9 2 \large99999^{2} = 9999800001 \large9999800001

From the above algorithm we have got that 9 in exponent more than 1 time that repeat give a (9) at first and a zero between (81).

Example=

9 9 2 \large99^{2} = 9801 \large9801 got a (9)(0).

hence the aswer is 9999800001 \large9999800001 .

good explanation.

9999 9 2 99999^2

= 99999 99999 =99999*99999

= 99999 ( 100000 1 ) =99999*(100000-1)

= 9999900000 99999 =9999900000-99999

= 9999800001 =\boxed{9999800001}
