Abstract
A gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a fan, a turbine section having a fan drive turbine rotor, and a compressor rotor. A gear reduction is configured to effect a reduction in a speed of the fan relative to an input speed from the fan drive turbine rotor. Each of the compressor rotor and the fan drive turbine rotor includes a number of blades in each of a plurality of blade rows. The number of blades are configured to operate at least some of the time at a rotational speed.
