Jenn will use 18 connecting cubes to make a model of a park. the model will be in the shape of a rectangle and will have a height of one cube. in how many different ways can jenn make the model of the park?

This question is basically: how many different pairs of numbers multiply up to 18?

(This is a simpler form of the question because the question is just asking how many shapes of a rectangle can Jenn create with 18 blocks)

So, the numbers that multiply up to 18 are:

1 x 18
2 x 9
3 x 6

So, the answer is: Jenn can make the model of the park in 3 different ways.
