Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & \Leftrightarrow {{\text{n}}^2} = {\left( {{\text{25}}} \right)^{64}} \times {\left( {64} \right)^{25}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {{\text{n}}^2} = {\left( {{{\text{5}}^2}} \right)^{64}} \times {\left( {{2^6}} \right)^{25}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {{\text{n}}^2} = {5^{128}} \times {2^{150}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {{\text{n}}^2} = {5^{128}} \times {2^{128}} \times {2^{22}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow n = {5^{64}} \times {2^{64}} \times {2^{11}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow n = {\left( {5 \times 2} \right)^{64}} \times {2^{11}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow n = {10^{64}} \times 2048 \cr} $$
∴ Sum of digits of n
= 2 + 0 + 4 + 8
= 14
