Question

a gardener has 1100 pants. he wants these in such a way that the number of rows and the number of columns remain the same. find the minimum number of plants he needs more for this. plezzz answer fast guys plezzz

Answer 1

since the gardener wants that the number of rows and the number of columns remain the same then the total no. of plants should be a perfect square.

he has 1100 plants which is not a perfect square

so we find a perfect square that is close to 1100

i.e 1156

so √1156 = 34 x 34

thus no. of rows = no. of column = 34 plants

then 1156 - 1100 = 56

therefore he needs 56 more plant
