There are 144 five-inch squares in a 36-inch square. You can calculate this by dividing the area of the larger square (36 * 36 = 1296 square inches) by the area of the smaller square (5 * 5 = 25 square inches) to determine how many small squares can fit inside the larger square.

There are 204 squares on a traditional checker. There are 64, 1 by 1 squares There are 49, 2 by 2 squares There are 36, 3 by 3 squares There are 25, 4 by 4 squares There are 16, 5 by 5 squares There are 9, 6 by 6 squares There are 4, 7 by 7 squares There is 1, 8 by 8 square To get this all you do is take the center of each square and count down on the board that many squares you can make. The number will be the same for the other side. then you multiply those numbers to get that many squares for that size square.

Well, darling, a 7 by 7 grid contains 49 squares in total. This includes 1 big square, 16 smaller squares made up of 4 units, 20 squares made up of 3 units, 12 squares made up of 2 units, and finally 1 square made up of 1 unit. So, in short, you've got yourself a grand total of 49 squares to count in that sassy little grid of yours.
There are 49 of the smallest squares. However, any grid forms "squares" that consist of more than one of the smallest squares. For example, there are four different 6x6 squares that each include 36 of the small squares, nine different 5x5 squares, sixteen 4x4 squares, twenty-five 3 x 3 squares, and thirty-six different squares that contain 4 of the small squares. One could therefore discern 140 distinct "squares." The number can be calculated from the formula [(n)(n+1)(2n+1)] / 6 where n is the grid size.

The numbers to the side and top indicate how many black squares there are in the row. Each number has at least one white space in between it and the next number. For instance, if the numbers are 3, 5, and 7, you will first have a group of three black squares, one or more white squares, next a group of 5 black squares, one or more white squares, and 7 black squares. The black squares can be right next to the edge or there can be several white squares between the edge and the first or last set of black squares. I hope this helps!
