It's better to work in n. Let's undo the square root. Take everything involved and square it to get:
81+%3C+n+%3C+121
Pick any two numbers greater than 81 but less than 121, and you got it.

Any number with a square root between 9 and 11.


100 works because square root 100 = 10 and 9 < 10 < 11.


101 works because square root 101 = 10.0498... which is between 9 and 11.


n, not the square root of n, has to be a whole number.
