plants he needs for this.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

total plants = 1000

let no. of rows be x

and no. of columns be x

total plants = no. of rows × no. of columns

1000 = x²

x = √1000

when we find the square root of 1000 we get 39 as remainder.

To make it a perfect square,

32²- 1000

= 1024 - 1000

= 24

hence we need 24 more plants.
