Here's a great problem from Donald Bell ... can you solve it?
========
Rectangling the Square:
Is there a set of rectangles, with no repeated length of side, that will tile more than one rectangle?
========
To get the context of the problem you'll need to read Donald's DOCX ... I'm not really in a position to extract and reformat it, but I'm hosting a copy here:
