Solution

Total number of saplings = 173
Number of rows = 12
To calculate the number of saplings in each row, we have to divide 173 by 12

$\begin{matrix} 1412173 - 12 - -- - 53 - 48 - - - 5 \end{matrix}$ Thus, we have a quotient of 14 and a remainder of 5.
So, there would be 14 saplings in a row and 5 will be left out.
