Create all of the possible arrays for modeling a rectangular quilt with
the 24 paper squares. Write an equation to accompany each array.
You can use the attached pre-made quilt squares by cutting and
pasting them, or you can draw the arrays with your own designs on a
separate sheet of paper.
Here are some possible arrays for modeling a rectangular quilt with 24 paper squares.
1. Array 1:
--------------
