Picky Rectangles

Discrete Mathematics Level 5

A $150\times 70$ grid has $178\ x\times y$ rectangles. Find the value of $x+y$ .

Details and Assumptions:

Dimensions are expressed as width $\times$ height. Thus an $x\times y$ rectangle (that is, a rectangle of width $x$ and height $y$ ) is considered to be different from a $y\times x$ (width $y,$ height $x$ ) rectangle. In this problem, you only consider the $x\times y$ rectangles, not the $y\times x$ ones.
