Well, isn't that a lovely question! In a 4x4 grid, you have 30 squares in total. You see, there are 16 1x1 squares, 9 2x2 squares, 4 3x3 squares, and 1 big 4x4 square. Isn't it just delightful to see all those squares come together to create something beautiful?

In a 4x4 grid, there are a total of 30 squares. This includes 16 individual squares formed by the grid's lines, 9 squares formed by combining 4 individual squares, 4 squares formed by combining 9 individual squares, and 1 square formed by combining all 16 individual squares.
Oh, dude, you're really making me count squares now? Okay, so in a 4x4 grid, you've got 16 squares in total. But hey, if you want to get technical, that includes the big square made by the entire grid and all the smaller squares within it. So, like, 16 squares, man.
30 squares within a 1 unit grid.
30 squares in all:
4*4 square: 1
3*3 squares: 4
2*2 squares: 9
1*1 squares: 16

16 Answer #2 It is 16 if you just count the 1 x 1 squares but the 16 squares also form a 4x4 square. There are also 2x2 squares and 3x3 squares in the pattern. 16 1x1 squares 9 2x2 squares 4 3x3 squares 1 4x4 square 30 squares (possibly more?)
4 squares in a 2 by 2 grid 9 squares in a 3 by 3 grid 16 squares in a 4 by 4 grid 25 squares in a 5 by 5 grid 36 squares in a 6 by 6 grid 49 squares in a 7by 7 grid 64 squares in a 8 by 8 grid 81 squares in a 9 by 9 grid 100 squares in a 10 by 10 grid
You really should do your own homework - this is a question designed to make you analyse number patterns and devise a method to predict the answer that can be applied to grids of differing size. If we start with a square cut into a 3x3 grid, we can count the nine single (1x1) squares in the grid, the one 3x3 square, and then four 2x2* squares, making a total of 14. Try it out, then work your way up to 6x6 (a 36 square grid) by way of 4x4 and 5x5, looking to see how the grid's dimensions correlate to the number of varying-sized squares that can be counted. As a tip- in a 6x6 grid, you will have one 6x6 square, thirty-six 1x1 squares, and how many 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, and 5x5 squares? *The squares can overlap, obviously.
