Answer:

Square number = 4

Primer number = 13

Explanation:

A square number is the result when a number has been multiplied by itself.

A prime number is a whole number greater than 1 that only has two factors, itself and 1.

List all the square numbers and prime numbers below 17:

Square numbers: 1, 4, 9, 16, ...

Prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, ...

Therefore, the only combination of square number and prime number that sums to 17 is: 4 + 13 = 17

Solution

Square number = 4

Primer number = 13
