Solution

The correct option is C 1
Gardener has 540 neem saplings.
Number of saplings in each row will be 11
To find the left over saplings we need to divide 540 by 11 and find the remainder.

$\begin{matrix} 4911540 - 44 - - - 100 - 99 - - - 1 \end{matrix}$ Thus, we get a quotient of 49 and a remainder of 1.
So, only 1 sapling will be left over.
