    Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a bypass flow passage that has an inlet and defines a bypass ratio in a range of approximately 8.5 to 13.5. A fan is arranged at the inlet. A first turbine is coupled with a first shaft such that rotation of the first turbine will drive the fan. A first compressor is coupled with the first shaft and includes three stages, and a second turbine is coupled with a second shaft and includes two stages. The fan includes a row of 16 (N) fan blades that has a solidity value (R) that is from 1.0 to 1.2 and a ratio of N/R that is from 13.3 to 16.0.
