To solve this, observe that a Chess board is an 8×8 square, containing 64 squares. If the amount of grains doubles on successive squares, then the sum of grains on all 64 squares is:
This equals 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 (18.4 quintillion). hope that helped XD xx

∙ 14y agoOn the 1st square 1 grain (=20)
On the 2nd square 2 grains (=21)
On the 3rd square 4 grains (=22)
The sequence continues so than on the nth square there are 2(n-1) grains.
On the 64th square there are 263 grains = 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 grains
