I'm assuming the question was to find out The number of squares that can be formed on an 8x8 chessboard.
There are many different-sized squares on a chessboard.
- 1x1 square (marked with red colour ) = 64
- 2x2 square (marked with yellow colour ) = 49
- 3x3 square (marked with green colour ) = 36
- 4x4 square (marked with blue colour ) = 25
- 5x5 square (marked with violet colour ) = 16
- 6x6 square (marked with olive colour ) = 9
- 7x7 square (marked with pink colour ) = 4
- 8x8 square (marked with orange colour ) = 1
So, total no. of Squares = 64 + 49 + 36 + 25 + 16 + 9 + 4 + 1
= 204
