Answer 1

We have a group of 169 students that needs to be seated in a square formation. Then, the number of rows has to be the square root of 169 :-

$r = \sqrt{169} = 13$

Then, a square of 13 rows and 13 columns will fit the 169 students.

If the number of students is 1024, then the number of rows N can be calculated as :-

${N}^{2} = 1024$

$N = \sqrt{1024}$

$N = 32$

Final Answer :-

169 students will seat in a 13×13 formation.

1024 students will seat in a 32×32 formation (N=32)
