Explanation:

A positive integer is a perfect square if it can be expressed as the product of two same positive integers.

Any number that cannot be written this way is a non-perfect square.

Since the integers are not presented, we will quickly examine the perfect squares between 1 and 50.

The perfect squares are: 1,4,9,16,25,36 and 49.

  • 1=1 X 1
  • 4=2 X 2
  • 9=3 X 3
  • 16 =4 X 4
  • 25 =5 X 5
  • 36 =6 X 6
  • 49 =7 X 7

Every other positive integer in the numbers 1-50 apart from those listed above is a non-perfect square.
