Number theory involving sum of digits of a number:
$begingroup$
Let a fixed natural number m be given Call a positive integer n to be a GRT number iff:
$n equiv 1 pmod m$
Sum of digits in decimal representation of $n^2$ is greater than or equal to sum of digits in decimal representation of $n$.
How many GRT numbers are there ?

Please fix the question and please never type something like$2. Sum of digits in decimal representation of n^2 is greater than or equal to sum of digits in decimal representation of n.$
again.

I can't prove it absolutely, but for any $m$ there must be infinitely many. Any large $n$ that is $equiv 1 bmod m$ will have a square with lots more digits than $n$ has, so the sum of digits of the square will be larger.
