Question

Ramya has 246 plants to plant. What maximum number of rows can she plant so that each row contains equal number of plants and there is no extra plant left?

Answer 1

Total Number of plants = 246

L.C.M of 246 = 123*2

Therefore,
A number of 123 rows consisting if 2 plants can be planted and no plants is thus left.

Answer 2

2.

This is a trick question. Ramya here can plant a row of 2 plants each, and that would make the number of plants in each of the 2 rows equal to 123. The math equation here would be simple. i.e. 123*2=246.

if Ramya decides to put more than 123 plants in each row, then the count of rows would change"
