Question
A man plants 15376 apple trees in his garden and arranges them so that there are as many rows as there are apples trees in each row. The number of rows is
Solution
The problem is asking for the number of rows in which the apple trees are planted. Given that the number of rows is equal to the number of apple trees in each row, this is essentially asking for the square root of the total number of trees.
The total number of apple trees is 15376.
To find the square root of 15376:
√15376 = 124
Therefore, the number of rows is 124.
