Do you know how to generalize this expression?
Hint: 3 = ( 1 3 ) = ( 2 3 ) .

That's nice. I was intrigued by this identity: ( n + 2 ) 2 = ( n − 1 ) 2 − 3 n 2 + 3 ( n + 1 ) 2 , hence decided to post a problem on it ;)

That's really nice. Keep posting awesome problems like this.
Great, I had done by Abhay's method with slight modifications. This problem should be level 3 :thinkingface: Nice.. :+1:
⇒ 9 9 9 7 2 − 3 × 9 9 9 8 2 + 3 × 9 9 9 9 2
⇒ 9 9 9 7 2 − 3 [ 9 9 9 8 2 − 9 9 9 9 2 ]
⇒ 9 9 9 7 2 − 3 [ 1 9 9 9 9 7 × ( − 1 ) ]
⇒ 9 9 9 7 2 + 1 9 9 9 9 7 × 3
⇒ ( 1 0 0 0 0 − 3 ) 2 + [ ( 1 0 0 0 0 + 9 9 9 7 ) × 3 ]
Let 1 0 0 0 0 = a .
⇒ ( a − 3 ) 2 + ( a + 9 9 9 7 ) × 3
⇒ a 2 − 3 a + 3 0 0 0 0
⇒ 1 0 0 0 0 2 − 3 0 0 0 0 + 3 0 0 0 0 = 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Let 9 9 9 7 = x
x 2 − 3 ( x + 1 ) 2 + 3 ( x + 2 ) 2
x 2 − 3 ( x 2 + 2 x + 1 ) + 3 ( x 2 + 4 x + 4 )
x 2 − 3 x 2 − 6 x − 3 + 3 x 2 + 1 2 x + 1 2
x 2 + 6 x + 9
( x + 3 ) 2
Substitute x
( 9 9 9 7 + 3 ) 2
1 0 0 0 0 2

Let a = 1 0 4 . Then we have:
( a − 3 ) 2 − 3 ( a − 2 ) 2 + 3 ( a − 1 ) 2 = a 2 − 6 a + 9 − 3 ( a 2 − 4 a + 4 ) + 3 ( a 2 − 2 a + 1 ) = a 2 = 1 0 8 = 100 000 000
x= 9999 (9997)^2 - 3 (9998)^2 + 3 (9999)^2 (x-2)^2 - 3 (x - 1)^2 + 3 (x)^2 x^2 -4x +4 - 3x^2 +6x -3 +3x^2 x^2 +2x +1 (x+1)^2 (9999 +1 )^2 (10000)^2 = 100000000

Let 9 9 9 8 = n then the expression turns to:
( n − 1 ) 2 − 3 n 2 + 3 ( n + 1 ) 2
= n 2 − 2 n + 1 − 3 n 2 + 3 n 2 + 6 n + 3
= n 2 + 4 n + 4
= ( n + 2 ) 2
Re-substituting 9 9 9 8 = n we have:
( n + 2 ) 2 = ( 9 9 9 8 + 2 ) 2 = ( 1 0 0 0 0 ) 2 = 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
