how many differnt ways can 50 players in a marching band be arranged in rectanagle arrangement?

2 and 25

5 and 10

50

To find the number of different ways that 50 players in a marching band can be arranged in a rectangular arrangement, we need to consider the dimensions of the rectangle.

Let's assume we have a rectangle with length 'L' and width 'W'. The number of players can be calculated by multiplying the length and width: N = L * W.

Now, let's think about the factors of 50 (the number of players) and how they can be arranged as the length and width:

Factors of 50:
1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50

We want to find all possible combinations of these factors, since they represent the possible lengths and widths of the rectangle.

For each combination, we can calculate the number of players by multiplying the length and width. We can then count the number of combinations.

Here's an example:

If we have a length of 2 and a width of 25, we have a rectangular arrangement of players. The number of players in this case is 2 * 25 = 50.

Using this approach, we can find all possible combinations of factors that multiply to give us 50, and calculate the total number of different ways the players can be arranged in a rectangular arrangement.
