Note: In a square, the length of EACH of the four sides of the square is the same.
Area = Length * width.
For a square, length = width.
So for a square, Area = length * width = (length of a side)² = s² ,
Given: A = s² = 144 ft² ;
Solve for the positive value of "s" .
________________________________
→ s² = 144 ft² ; Take the "square root" of each side ;
→ √(s²) = √(144 ft²) ;
→ s = 12 ft.

The answer is: 12 ft.

Answer:
Given:
cherry tree seedlings : 64
peach tree seedlings : 96
64/96 : Simplify this fraction
64 / 8 = 8 / 4 = 2
96 / 8 = 12 / 4 = 3
2 and 3 number of seedlings per row
64 / 2 = 32
96 / 3 = 32
number of rows
The maximum number of rows that the owner can plant is 32 rows with 2 cherry tree seedlings and 3 peach tree seedlings.
