2020 HK IMO Preliminary Selection Contest, 3

A child lines up $2020^2$ pieces of bricks in a row, and then remove bricks whose positions are square numbers (i.e. the 1st, 4th, 9th, 16th, ... bricks). Then he lines up the remaining bricks again and remove those that are in a 'square position'. This process is repeated until the number of bricks remaining drops below $250$. How many bricks remain in the end?

Let $ABC$ be a triangle. Let $ r$ denote the inradius of $\vartriangle ABC$. Let $r_a$ denote the $A$-exradius of $\vartriangle ABC$. Note that the $A$-excircle of $\vartriangle ABC$ is the circle that is tangent to segment $BC$, the extension of ray $AB$ beyond $ B$ and the extension of $AC$ beyond $C$. The $A$-exradius is the radius of the $A$-excircle. Define $ r_b$ and $ r_c$ analogously. Prove that $$\frac{1}{r}=\frac{1}{r_a}+\frac{1}{r_b}+\frac{1}{r_c}$$
