\\\int_{0}^{n}\{x\} d x=n \int_{0}^{1}\{x\} d x=n \int_{0}^{1} x d x=\frac{n}{2} \\ \int_{0}^{n}[x] d x=\int_{0}^{n}(x-\{x\}) d x=\frac{n^{2}}{2}-\frac{n}{2} \\ \Rightarrow\left(\frac{n^{2}-n}{2}\right)^{2}=\frac{n}{2} \cdot 10 \cdot n(n-1)(\text { where } n>1) \\ \Rightarrow \frac{n-1}{4}=5 \Rightarrow n=21
