Question

How many squares u can actually count in this given picture?

​

Answer 1

Answer:

I counted 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Its probably a trick question though

Answer 2

Answer: I counted 36.

(edit) But the answer is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Count all the "normal" squares. 16.

Then all the 2x2 normal squares. 9.

Then count all the tiny squares. 8.

Then the 2 big squares the tiny squares make. 2.

Then the giant square, which is all the squares. 1.

And I agree this probably is a trick question.

16 + 9 + 8 + 2 + 1 = 36 squares in total

*EDIT*

Apparently 3x3 squares exist so...

3x3 squares . 4

so 36 + 4 = 40 squares in total

(thanks to the person who asked the question in the first place for telling me about those 3x3 squares)
