let us take, x= 3m , 3m+1, 3m+2

when, x=3m

        x^2 =  (3q)^ 2

         x^2 = 9q^2 

        x^2  = 3(3q^2)

we see that 3q^2= n

so we have done the first equation 3n


when x=3m+1

           x^2= (3q+1)^2

           [(a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2]

           x^2= 9q+6q+1

           x^2= 3(3q+2q)+1

 3q+2q= n

    this satisfy the equation m+1
