Given P = Prime number then you can build (P-1)/2 number of rectangles given any prime number. All prime numbers are odd and you would need two squares to make a rectangle. Given that you need two squares to build a rectangle, you divide your prime number by two to get the number of "pairs" of squares and thus the number of rectangles you can build. Since the number 2 does not divide evenly into an odd number - all prime numbers are odd - then you either subtract one from the prime number before dividing or discard the remainder if you choose not to subtract one before dividing.
if x is the prime number, there will be an infinite number of rectangles of dimension (1*x)
Only 1 rectangle can be built with a Prime number of square tiles.
One.
yes they can
The number of rectangles you can build with a prime number of tiles depends on many factors such as shape, size, and uniformity of the tiles.

22 is a composite number with four factors, which means two rectangles.
One.
The answer depends on the number of tiles.
