Mr Kendrick is trying to organize his year 7 class into rows for their class photograph. If Mr Kendrick wishes to organize the 24 students into rows containing equal numbers for students, what possible arrangement can he have. Note Mr Kendrick will not be in the photograph

Just list the factors of 24. Those are the possible numbers of students that can be in each row.

1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24 are the possible row sizes.
