Question

elijah used 17 connecting cubes to make a model kitchen. the kitchen model is in the shape of a rectangle and is one cube high. how many different ways could elijah make the model of the kitchen

Answer 1

If there are 17 different cubes which are identical it can be arranged in 17! ways.

So, 17 identical cubes can be arranged in rectangle by  $\frac{17!}{17!}=1 way$.

Now it is also given that the the cuboid which is in the shape of a kitchen has height of 1 unit.

So, total possible ways = (1 way in which all the cubes are arranged)×Single cuboid having height 1 unit=1 way
