I have done the working on the attached sheet, i got ##3## as the minimum. I do not have the mark scheme for this worksheet.
Apple trees will have ##22## trees per row ( 3 rows in total).
Bananas will have ##22## trees per row (4 rows in total).
Mango trees will have ##22## trees per row (5 rows in total).

Your thoughts highly appreciated.

So, you are unable to do that yourself? You need to learn to plug your answer back into the problem statement and verify that your solution works. You should not need anyone else to do that for you.
