Let $n_1 = \overline{abcabc}$ and $n_2= \overline{d00d}$ be numbers represented in the decimal system, with $a\ne 0$ and $d \ne 0$. a) Prove that $\sqrt{n_1}$ cannot be an integer. b) Find all positive integers $n_1$ and $n_2$ such that $\sqrt{n_1+n_2}$ is an integer number. c) From all the pairs $(n_1,n_2)$ such that $\sqrt{n_1 n_2}$ is an integer find those for which $\sqrt{n_1 n_2}$ has the greatest possible value
