Let the number of rows be = r

Let the number of seats per row be = s

we know that the number of seats is 126.

So, s\times r=126    ..... (1)

As given, there are five more seats per row than the number of rows, so we can say that:

s=r+5

Putting this in equation (1)

(r+5)*r=126

r^{2}+5r=126

r^{2}+5r-126=0

r^{2}+14r-9r-126=0

(r+14)(r-9)=0

r=-14 and r=9 (neglecting the negative value) we get r=9

And s=r+5

so, s =9+5=14

Hence, there are 5 rows and 14 seats per row.
