Question

A gardener wants to plant new 6000 sunflower plants in a nursery in the form of a square. After arranging the plants, he finds that some are left out. How many plants were left out?

Answer 1

Answer:5929 plants were arranged in the form of square with side 77 plants.

After arranging 5929 plants in the form of square 6000-5929 plants will be left.

So 71 plants will be left

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

$\fontsize{18}{10}{\textup{\textbf{71 plants are left out}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The closest square to 6000 which is less than 6000 is of 77

which is 5929

So the gardener is able to arrange 5929 plants in order of a square

So he remains with 6000-5929=71 plants

This number can differ as it is not mentioned that he tries to plant the maximum number of plants

But if we maximize the number, the gardener is left with 71 plants
