Each of the small squares below are 6 inches by 6 inches. There is a small circle for every picture. The bulletin board is 14 of those aquares wide and 8 of those squares tall. There is a picture of a student at every corner of a square. If you will count the corners of squares horizontally you will find there is 1 more corner than there are squares or 15 corners. If you will count the corners of squares vertically you will find there is 1 more corner than there are squares or 9 corners. So there are 15×9 or 135 pictures on the board. Count the circles if you wish.Edwin
