Question

Albert has 225 strawberry plants that he wants to plant in a square formation in evenly spaced rows. How many strawberry plants should he plant in each row?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Since the formation of the strawberry plants should represent a square, it implies that the dimensions of the formation (i.e length and breadth) must be equal.

To achieve this, we have to calculate its square root as the formula for the area of any square is given as (side)^2.

Now,
`√(225)` = 15

implies that each as well as each column will contain 15 strawberry plants

Answer 2

15

Explanation:

to determine the number of plants per row, take the square root of 225

sqrt(225) = 15

There should be 15 plants per row
