- Answer: 21
Explanation:Each row contains 3 greater than the front row..
So, the order follows...
1st row 3, 2nd row 6 and so on.... which indicates an Arithemetic Progression(A.P)
we don't know no.of terms in the series... but the sum is 630 i.e., the total no.of children.
n(2a+(n-1)d)/2 = 630
a=3, d=3
substituting and solving we get n=21,the no.of rows required.... - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- number of rows will be 20.
check
n(2a+(n-1)d)/2 = 20(6+19*3)/2= 10*63=630 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- Answer is 20
3(1+2+3+.....N)=630
3[N(N+1)/2]=630
N(N+1)/2=210
N(N+1)=420
solving we get N=20,-21
so No. of possible rows are 20.
