Answer 1

Answer:

Total number of men=64019

After arranging them in the form of a square 10men were left out

So the number of men in the square=64019-10=64009

In a square all the sides are equal

So....the number of columns will be equal to the number of rows

So....the number of men in a row will be equal to the total number of columns

Columns will be equal to the √69009=253

No of the men in the front row will be 253
