In the problem I am not able to derive difference term. I know for solving summation we have to make difference term.
How to proceed with this problem?
$$fracdisplaystyle sum_n=1^99 sqrt10+sqrtndisplaystyle sum_n=1^99 sqrt10-sqrtn$$

You can replace 10 (N) by 2, and 99 (N^2-1) by 3. The result is $sqrt2+1$ for both. Examine the simpler case first, maybe.

This can be done using an identity I learned from math.SE.
For any $a > 0$ and $0 le b le a^2$, we have
$$sqrta+sqrtb+sqrta-sqrtb = sqrt2sqrta + sqrta^2-b$$
To prove this identity, just take squares on both sides and use the fact
$$beginalign
left(sqrta+sqrtb+sqrta-sqrtbright)^2 &= left(a + sqrtbright) + left(a - sqrtbright) + 2sqrta^2-b\
&= 2left(a + sqrta^2-bright)endalign$$
Let $a$ be any integer $> 1$ and $c = a^2-b$. When we sum $b$ from $1$ to $a^2-1$, above identity tell us
$$sum_b=1^a^2-1 sqrta + sqrtb + sum_b=1^a^2-1sqrta - sqrtb
= sqrt2sum_b=1^a^2-1sqrta + sqrta^2-b
= sqrt2sum_c=1^a^2-1sqrta + sqrtc$$
This leads to
$$fracsum_b=1^a^2-1sqrta+sqrtbsum_b=1^a^2-1sqrta-sqrtb
= frac1sqrt2-1 = sqrt2+1
$$
Substitute $a$ by $10$, this reduces to the ratio at hand. i.e. The ratio we seek equals to $sqrt2+1$.
