There are 30 squares in a 4 by 4 grid. Here's how it breaks down.

There are 16 of the 1 x 1 squares.

There are 9 of the 2 x 2 squares.

There are 4 of the 3 x 3 squares.

There is 1 of the 4 x 4 squares.

It's fairly easy to see the individual 1 x 1 squares and count them. Same with the 4 x 4 square, as it's the perimeter of the whole array. With the 2 x 2 squares, start with a 2 x 2 square in, say, the upper left corner and "move" the square one space to the right. Then one more to "complete" the top row. Then move it one square "down" and continue until arriving at the place you started. There will be 9 different "positions" for the 2 x 2 square.

Oh, dude, in a 4 by 4 grid, there are 30 squares. You got your big ol' square, then you got your smaller squares within that, and it's like a square party in there. So, yeah, 30 squares in total. But hey, who's counting, right?

Oh, what a happy little question! In a 4 by 4 grid, you can find 30 squares of different sizes. Each square is created by combining smaller squares within the grid. Just imagine all those lovely squares coming together to create a beautiful pattern on your canvas.

Well, honey, in a 4 by 4 grid, there are 30 squares in total. You've got your 16 1x1 squares, 9 2x2 squares, 4 3x3 squares, and 1 big ol' 4x4 square. So, count 'em up and you'll see there's no square left unaccounted for in that grid.

5. There would be the 4 squares inside the grid, but also the one square which is the whole outside of the grid.
