Open in App
Solution

Total number of men=64019
After arranging them in the form of a square 10men were left out
So number of men in the square=64019-10=64009
In a square all the sides are equal
So....the number of columns will be equal to the number of rows
So....the number of men in a row will be equal to the total number of columns
Columns will be equal to the √69009=253
No of men in front row will be 253
