Question

A gardener has 2465 plants. He wants to plant these in such a way that the number of rows and the number of columns remain same. Find the minimum number of plants he needs more for this.

Answer 1

Answer:

Here, plants = 1000

Since the remainder is 39.

Therefore 31^2<100031

2

<1000

Next perfect square number 32^2=102432

2

=1024

Hence, number to be added

= 1024 – 1000 = 24

\therefore1000+24=1024∴1000+24=1024

Hence, the gardener required 24 more plants.
