7 x 7 = 49
7 x 7 = 49 of the smallest squares if there are 7 squares on each side. The total number of "squares" of any size (1 to 49 of the smallest squares) is 140. The number can be calculated from the formula [(n)(n+1)(2n+1)] / 6 where n is the grid size.
20 squares x 20 squares = 400 squares
There is a formula for "the difference of squares." (x + 7)(x - 7) = 0 x = 7, -7
The Scrabble board is 15 x 15. There are 15 x 15 = 225 squares on the board.
9 x 9 = 81 squares.

8 squares per row. A chess board is made up by 8 x 8 squares.
49 squares I believe?
8 x 8 = 64
7 x 7 = 49
There are 64 squares upon a chess-board : 8 x 8 .
64 squares on the chess board, and 4 squares in a 2 x 2 square; 64 / 4 = 16.
7 x 7 = 49 of the smallest squares if there are 7 squares on each side. The total number of "squares" of any size (1 to 49 of the smallest squares) is 140. The number can be calculated from the formula [(n)(n+1)(2n+1)] / 6 where n is the grid size.
A chess board has 64 squares - but if you look closely, you can make another square out of every 2x2 (49), 3x3 (49) 4x4 (25) 5x5 (16) 6x6 (9) 7x7 (4) and finally one 8x8 square - so 64 + 49 + 36 + 25 + 16 + 9 + 4 + 1 = 204 squares. If we assume "rectangles" are all other rectangles that are not also squares (it could be argued that a rectangle is a square - in which case you add 204 to the number I compute here), then you can see a whole bunch more. It helps to know that 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n = n x (n+1) / 2 (speeds up the math) 1 square tall: 2 x 1: 7 per row times 8 rows = 56 3 x 1: 6 per row ... = 48 for a total of (7+6+5+4+3+2+1) x 8 (rows) = 8 x 8 x 7 / 2 = 224 2 squares tall: (7 + 6 + ...) x 7 x 2 = 8 x 7 x 7 / 2 You can see that if we keep going we get 8 x (8 + 7 + 6 + ... + 1) x 7 / 2 = 8 x ( 8 x (8 + 1 ) / 2 ) x 7 / 2 = 2 x 8 x 9 x 7 total number of rectangles = 1008 So the answer is 204 squares and 1008 (non-square) rectangles, or 204 squares and 1212 "rectangles" (including squares).
There are 64 playing squares on a checkerboard. Checkerboards have 8 rows of 8 squares each, in alternating colors, which are usually black and red. Geometrically speaking, however, there are actually 204 squares on an eight-by-eight checkerboard.
