Let the number be 'N'
N/6 == Quotient + Remainder
N= 6* Quotient + 3

N^2 = 6^2*Quotient^2 + 9 + 2*3*6*Quotient
N^2 =  36*Quotient^2 + 9 + 36*Quotient
Now,
N^2/6 = 36*Quotient^2/6  + 9/6 + 36*Quotient/6
Now the remainder is nothing but the remainder of 9/6 [since all other terms are perfectly divisible by '6']
Hence remainder is '3'
Hope it helps.
