# of chairs in rows: 20, 22,24,26,28,30,32,34,36,38,40,42,44,46,48,50
difference




a.
how many chairs will be in the 25th row?


...chairs will be in the 25th row
b.
with chairs how many perfect rows can you make






.....# of rows you can make, since is NOT a perfect number,
the only perfect numbers between and are , , ; since , with chairs you can make only perfect rows which are rows and
c.
how many chairs will be in the last row?
the last row is :
...# chairs in the last row
d.

what are the difference in the number of chairs for arranging 25 rows and 50 rows?
...chairs will be in the 25th row




the difference in the number of chairs for arranging rows and rows is
or, since the difference in the number of chairs for arranging between two rows is 2 chairs, then
between rows and will be
e.
in which row chairs will exist?




.....row in which chairs will exist
f.
will you be able to make perfect rows with thousand chairs? if not how many chairs are needed to make the row perfect?
from c. we know that
and is not perfect row because is NOT a perfect number
first perfect number is (see b.); so we need 5more rows or 10 more chairs






g.
if you need to add more rows you will have rows
as given,for each additional row you need more chair; so, to make more rows you will need more chairs to row which is ; so, we will have chairs in row #
