Question

2025 plants are to be planted in a garden in such a way that each row contains as many plants as the number of rows. Find the number of rows and the number of plants in each row.

Sum

Solution

It is given that in the garden, each row contains as many plants as the number of rows.

Hence,

Number of rows = Number of plants in each row

Total number of plants = number of rows × number of plants in each row.

3 2025
3 675
3 225
3 75
5 25
  1

Number of rows × Number of plants in each row = 2025

(Number of rows)2 = 2025

Number of rows = `sqrt2025`

2025 =  3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5

∴ `sqrt2025` = 5 × 3 × 3 = 45

Thus, the number of rows and the number of plants in each row is 45
