Answer 1

Answer:

I think they are to be planted in rows of 24 and columns of 30.

If this is so then here is your answer,

we have to find the minimum number of plants which directly means that we have to find the LCM of 24 and 30.

LCM (24, 30)=120

Hence 120 plants can be planted in the plot.

Answer 2

Answer:

find the lcm of 24 and 30 it is 120
