Step-by-step explanation:

After 136 people are seated in the bleacher, there can be 514 people seated in chairs. We know that 514 = 25×20 +14, so there can be 20 rows of 25 chairs. We require an equal number of chairs in each row, so there cannot be some rows with 21 chairs, nor can there be a 26th row with 14 chairs.

There can be 20 chairs in each row.
