This may seem like an innocuous question at first, but I'm not so sure that's really the case. The question is as follows:
If you have a rectangle of height X and length Y, what is the smallest number of those rectangles needed that when placed together create a perfect square? You are allowed to rotate the rectangles 90* in any pattern you desire. You are not allowed to trim the rectangles in any way.
The particular case I'm looking for is a rectangle with dimensions 63x88 but I'm curious about any old generic dimension. Thanks
