Answer:

To find the number of students in the class, we need to determine the number of rows in the garden.

Let's assume the number of rows is "x". Since each row contains as many plants as the number of rows, each row will have "x" plants.

The total number of plants is given as 8836. So, we can set up the equation:

x * x = 8836

This equation represents the square of the number of rows. To find the value of "x", we can take the square root of both sides of the equation:

√(x * x) = √8836

x = √8836

Using a calculator, we find that the square root of 8836 is approximately 94. Therefore, the number of rows (and also the number of plants in each row) is 94.

Since each row represents a class in the garden, the number of students in the class is also 94.
