A gardener is making a triangular planting, with 35 plants in the front row, 31 in the second row, 27 in the third row and so on. If the pattern is consistent how many plant are there be in the last row?

subtract multiples of 4 till you can't get any smaller.

In other words, what is the remainder of 35/4 ?

8 ,,then?

oh, please. If you divide by 4, the remainder cannot be 8

35 = 8*4 + 3

8 is the quotient
3 is the remainder

oh yes ! ,,im sorry,,

3 is in the choices
thank you

To find out how many plants are there in the last row, we need to identify the pattern and then use it to determine the number of plants.

Looking at the given information, we can observe that each row has 4 fewer plants compared to the previous row.

First, let's find the difference between consecutive rows:
35 - 31 = 4
31 - 27 = 4

We can see that there is a consistent difference of 4 plants between each row.

To find the number of plants in the last row, we need to continue this pattern until we reach the last row.

So, if we subtract 4 from the number of plants in the third row (27 - 4), we can find the number of plants in the fourth row.

27 - 4 = 23
23 - 4 = 19
19 - 4 = 15

We can continue this pattern until we find the last row.

15 - 4 = 11
11 - 4 = 7
7 - 4 = 3

The last row has 3 plants.

Therefore, there will be 3 plants in the last row.
