Answer 2

Answer:

The number of the row could be:  1,3,7,9,21,63

Step-by-step explanation:

There are  63 same size picture tiles

The area of a rectangle is  A = l*w, where:

• l is the length
• w is the width

Assume the area of each picture is 1 square unit, so the total are of the wall filled with 63 picture is 63

So to possible arrangements of the picture tiles are factors of 63, we have:

• 63 = 7 × 9
• 63 = 3 × 21
• 63 = 63 × 1

The number of the row could be:  1,3,7,9,21,63
