Think of the squares that are under 50:
1%5E2=+1
2%5E2+=+4
3%5E2=+9
4%5E2+=+16
5%5E2+=+25
6%5E2+=+36
7%5E2+=+49
If you add 2 to any of these, which give you a cube?
1%2B2=3,
4%2B2=6,
9%2B2=11,
16%2B2=18,
25%2B2=27,=>27=3%5E3
36%2B2=38,
49%2B2=51
So the number that is one more than a square (25) and less than a cube (27) is the even number highlight%2826%29.
