A school collected Rs.2304 as fees from its students. If each student pays as much money as the number of students in the school, how many students were there in the school ?

The amount paid by each student = The total number of students in the school.

... The amount paid by each student = (The total number of students in the school)
= Rs.2304 = 230400 paise
... The total number of students in the school = √230400=10√2304
