Please solve the below questions
a) Bryn wants to display 24 photos (with longer side vertical) with 2 cm spacing around each photo. He wants more columns than rows of photos. Find the smallest poster area that is needed.
B) Bryn wants to display 18 photos in 3 rows of 6 photos each with 3 cm spacing around each photo. The photos may all be displayed in portrait orientation or landscape. Which orientation uses less poster area?
C) Bryn wants to display 24 photos with longer side verticals in 6 rows of 4 photos with equal spacing around each photo. He has a poster that is 62cm wide and 120 cm high. He wants to use the full width of the poster but is prepared to trim the height to achieve equal spacing. How much of the poster does he need to trim?
