Answer:

There are four possible rectangles with 10 tiles.

Explanation:
The question for this problem is: How many different rectangles could she make with the 10 tiles?

All the dimensions possible are all products that give 10 as a result. So, all possible rectangles would be:
2 width x 5 length = 10
5 width x 2 length = 10
1 width x 10 length = 10
10 width x 1 length = 10
