Solution
The correct option is D 52 It is mentioned that each row has as many chairs as the number of rows.
Let us find the factors of 2704.
2704=2×2×2×2×13×13
Therefore, by dividing the factors equally into two parts, we get:
2704 = (2 × 2 × 13) × (2 × 2 × 13)
Hence, we can say that
Number of rows = Number of chairs
= 52
Hence, there are 52 rows, and each row has 52 chairs.
