King Quadratus lives in a palace with many rooms, both square and rectangular. King Quadratus' feet began to freeze, so he ordered his servants to cover the entire floor with carpets. The king's carpets are rectangular and square. They were laid in one layer so that they did not intersect and there were no empty spaces between them. When the servants washed the floor, they took away all the carpets and wrote on the floor under each carpet how many squares there were in the carpet they took away. Now they need to cover the floor with carpets again. The number 4 must be covered by one carpet of 4 squares, the number 6 by one carpet of 6 squares, etc. There may be several carpets of the same size in a room, but of different shapes: we do not know whether the carpets there were narrow or wide. It is easier to find the solution to each puzzle when you hold colored carpets in your hands, they all fit the size of our rooms. The tab contains carpets of different sizes. Floor 1 is the first level of difficulty.
We recommend solving problems in order, from simple to complex.
At the end of the notebook we provide only one solution, but there may be several.
If you find it difficult to solve a problem, you can look at the answers for the position of one of the large carpets and try to arrange the rest yourself.
If an adult wants to help a child, he can give him a hint and correctly place one carpet - this already simplifies the task.
