1. There are 16 different rectangles that can be formed with an area of 120 square units using unit squares.
2. Of the 36 students that signed up for classes, 4 signed up for classes other than Chemistry or English. 18 signed up for English only, and 20 signed up for Chemistry only.
3. To determine the winner of a tournament starting with 1024 players where each of the 4-player games produces one winner who advances, 10 games must be played.

1. How many different rectangles with an area of one-hundred twenty
(120) square units can be formed using unit squares?
Understanding the problem:
120 square unit have 16 divisors so if I can use this formula a x b differ from b x a I will conclude to 16 different rectangles Devise a plan: I’m planning to solve it in a similar manner but simpler solution and listing all the known information Carry out the plan: To start it off, I will find any factors that worked on 120 (things you can multiply that is equal to 120)
Review the solution :
1x120 4x30 2x60 5x24 3x40 6x20
2. Suppose thirty-six (36) students signed up for classes during an
orientation session. If exactly twenty-two (22) of them signed up for Chemistry and exactly eighteen (18) of them signed up for English, how many of them signed up for both Chemistry and English? How many of them signed up for Chemistry only? How many of them signed up for English only?
Understand the problem:
36 students signed up for classes during an orientation session and exactly 22 of the students signed up for chemistry and exactly 18 students signed up for english but If I add that all students who signed for their classes it sums up to 40 students meaning there are 4 unknown students that signed up for their class Devise a plan: I’ll make a list of known information to identify what class did the four students signed up prior to orientation session and to come up with different possibilities
Carry out the plan:
In chemistry there are exactly 22 students signed up and for English there are exactly 18 signed up so I can safely assume that 4 students didn’t signed up during the orientation
Review the solution :
the possibilities are: Chemistry: 22students - 4 students (signed up but earlier or later than orientation session) =18 English: 18 TOTAL: 36 or Chemistry:22students English+ 18-4 students (signed up but earlier or later than orientation session) TOTAL: 36 or Chemical 22-2students (signed up but earlier or later than orientation session) = 20 English 18-2 students (signed up but earlier or later than orientation session) = 16 TOTAL That concludes that 4 students signed up for class earlier or later of orientation session
3. An online mobile game tournament was facilitated and begins with
1024 players. Each game has four (4) players, and in each game, only one (1) winner will advance to the next round. How many games must be played to determine the winner?
Understand the problem:
1024 players and every game there will be 4 players and each game will result only to a 1 winner, meaning that I just need to divide the 1024 players into 4 (every game) until I determine the player who’ll rise to the top Devise a plan: I’ll divide the overall gamers to 4 for each game and making a list of players that won until the very last comes out Carry out the 1024 / 4 = 256 (1st 256 / 4 = 64 (2nd 64 / 4 = 16 ( 3rd 16 / 4 = 4 (4th 4 / 4 = 1 (5th
Review the solution:
I just divided the 1024 players on each game until I determine how many games does it need to finally found the sole winner
