This question already has an answer here:
Find all digits $a,b$ such that the number $overline{aabb}$ is a perfect square
5 answers
I know that I can write $aabb=1000a+100a+10b+b$, $a,bin {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}, aneq 0$, so $aabb=1100a+11b=m^2$, where $min mathbb N$, I notice that $m^2=11(100a+b)$ so I need to find some number that $11mid m^2$ and $11mid m$,$1100<m^2<9999$ or $33<m<99$ so I just put number in calculator and 88 is answer, so $aabb=7744$, but is there any other better solution?

We have that
$$11mid (100a+b) implies (a+b)equiv 0 pmod{11},$$
and then try with $(a,b)$ such that $a+b=11$, excluding the cases $b=2,3,7,8$.
It's not immediately clear why you exclude cases of b = 2,3,7,8?

@IanF1 Because $n^2mod 10$ can’t take those values.

of course - dumb of me. Might be worth including in the answer for the benefit of other dumb people.

"a divides b":a mid b
which renders $amid b$, when formatted in mathjax. Don't usea|b
