%N Positive numbers n such that 100*n^2/(100+n^2) are integers.

%C Rewrite 100n^2/(100+n^2) as an I : n=sqrt(100I/(100-I)), where a finite substitution for I results.

%C Instead of 100, we could use 72 and get n=8,24,48,64; we could use 162 and get n=54,108,144,150. Many other values are possible.

%e for n=20, 100*20^2/(100+20^2)=I or 80.
