A gardener organizes plants into rows to create a square formation but discovers that 15 plants are not included. If the total number of plants is 3984, then what is the number of plants in each row?
63
Step 1 – Set up the equation:
Plants in square formation = Total plants − leftover = 3984 − 15 = 3969
Step 2 – Find the square root:
\(n^2 = 3969\) → \(n = \sqrt{3969} = 63\)
Verification: 63² = 3969, and 3969 + 15 = 3984 ✓
Hence, each row has 63 plants.
