Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Good evening
A gardener has 1000 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 plants he needs more for this.
⇒ No. of plant gardener has = 1000 plants
⇒ The minimum number of plants he needs to plant them in such a way that the no. of rows and the no. of columns remain same .
⇒ Let the total no. of rows = x
∴ total no. of columns = x
⇒ Total Plants =
No. of rows × No. of columns
→ 1000 = x × x
→ 1000 = x²
→ x = √1000
Now , we will find square root of 1000 (given in attachment )
→ We got the remainder = 39
Given that , 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 plants he needs more for this.
We need to find the least no. that must be added to 1000 to make it a perfect square
Now ,
31² < 1000 < 32²
Thus we add 32² - 1000 to the number
∴ Thus no. to add is
→ 32² - 1000
→ 1024 - 1000
→ 24 (Answer)
