\r\n" );
document.write( "The smallest 6 digit number is 100000\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "We find the square root of 100000 with a calculator:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( " = 316.227766\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "We take the next larger whole number 317\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "We square 317\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "317² = 100489\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "That's the smallest perfect square which is a 6-digit number,\r\n" );
document.write( "because when we square 316 we only get 99856, which is only \r\n" );
