Hence total number of plants will be =

But as per question, total number of plants are 54. It means

Now, the number of plants in each row was 3 more than the number of rows means

Putting this value of n in first equation we made

Subtracting 54 in both sides

Factoring

Means x = 6 or x = -9

The number of rows can not be negaive.

Hence x = 6

It means number of rows of tomato plants will be 6. : Answer
