For the Republic Day parade, 3000 soldiers were to be arranged in the form of a square. If 84 soldiers were in excess, how many soldiers were in a row?
:
r = sqrt%283000-84%29
r = 54 rows and 54 columns
:
How many more soldiers will be required if the excess soldiers too are to be included in square formation?
Find how many in a 55 by 55 square: 55^2 = 3025
Find how many more soldiers required: 3025 - 3000 = 25 more
