Solution
Total number of students = 745
Students left after standing in arrangement = 16
No. of students who were to be arranged = 745 – 16 = 729
The number of rows = no. of students in each row
No. of rows = `sqrt(729)`
| 3 | 729 |
| 3 | 243 |
| 3 | 81 |
| 3 | 27 |
| 3 | 9 |
| 3 | 3 |
| 1 |
= `sqrt(bar(3 xx 3) xx bar(3xx3) xx bar(3xx3)`
= 3 x 3 x 3 = 27
