A gardener wishes to plant 8289 plants in the form of a square and found that there were 8 plants left. How many plants were planted in each row?

Given, 8289 plants are to be planted in the form of square with 8 left to be planted.

We need to find out number of plants planted in each row.

Since, 8 plants are left from the given number of plants

= 8289 – 8

= 8281

To form a square number of plants planted in each row = number of rows.

Consider it as x

⇒ x × x = 8281

⇒X² = 8281

X = 91.

Hence, 91 plants are planted in each row.
