Given the statement:

Catrina used 25 square green tiles to form a square in the middle of her floor.

Determine how many rows did she make and how many tiles did she put in each row.

Solution:

In order to determine how many rows did she make, and the number of tiles in each row, we simply needed to take the factor of 25 which is 5. We also know that 25 is a perfect square number, therefore we can assume that Catrina made 5 rows, whereas each row is consists of 5 tiles.

Final answer:

5 rows with 5 tiles.
