Find the minimum number of plants he needs more for this. (2.5)​

Answer 1

Answer:

75 plants

Step-by-step explanation:

For number of rows and columns to be same, the number of plants has to be a square number.

2041 is closest to the square number 2116 (46*46).

So 2116 - 2041 = 75 is the number of plants to be added.

he needs 75 plants more to make columns and rows equal.
