The skinny one. A Prime number only has two factors (one rectangle). The factors are one and the number itself.

If the tiles cannot be arranged into a rectangle or square it is a prime number.
How many rectangles can you build with a prime number square tiles?
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.

Jennifer has made a rectangle using 48 square tiles If she adds the length and width of her rectangle together she gets a prime number What is the length and width of Jennifer's rectangle Explain?
The length ad the width is 16 and 3 because 16 times 3 equals 48 and 16 plus 3 equals 19 which is a prime number because its only factors are 1 and itself
