Checkerboard squares

So this problem is saying that a standard 8-by-8 checkerboard is made up to 64 small
Squares. In this case all you will have to do is multiply 8 by 8 and you will get 64. Also it says you can make various shapes. Okay we are finding out how meant shapes I can make on an 8-by-8 checkerboard altogether. After this you will have to find another checkerboard that is not 8-by-8 and we have to determine how many squares we can find altogether. By doing this problem of the week we will be able to find shapes of any checkerboard that is given. We have to find multiple ways to a 7-by-7, 6-by-6, 5-by-5,
4-by-4, 3-by-3, 2-by-2, and 1-by-1.

So it is saying that, how many squares I can make in an 8-by-8 checkerboard?
The things I checked and figured out that are wrong is that I tried to do as much squares as
Possible but I always had less and I knew it was going to be way more. So I asked for help
From some of my classmates when I was done with my work. They seemed to actually helped
With all the struggles I was going through. They didn’t actually helped me find the answer
But they did help me through it though. I also did ask mom but she really didn’t help because
She doesn’t know how hard this could be. But the methods I tried doing was that input
Output method but then I knew I was way off. The process I went through was I was trying
A summation notation. So I started to do the process which
8*8=64
7*7=49
6*6=36
5*5=25
4*4=16
3*3=9
2*2=4
1*1=1
So I knew this has helped me in some way. The number of squares I can find in an 8 by 8 checker board is 204 possible squares. I found a summation notation that can be used as this problem which is what I put

    From there, I began by using the largest number box, which was four. I noticed that if I used any number other than zero in the four box, the problem wouldn’t work. To prove this, if I put a one in the “four” box, that means that there would be another box from 0-3 that would contain the number four, which means that there would be four of that number. This is impossible because there are only three boxes left. Any other solution wouldn’t work either, so I left the “four” box as a zero.…

    There’s a standard 8 x 8 checkerboard made up by 64 small squares. Each square is able to combine with others squares to make other squares of different sizes. Our job is to find out how many squares there’s in total. Once you get all the number of squares get all the number of squares and feel confident with your answer you next explain how to find the number of squares on any size checkerboard. You will know you have the answer when no matter how what size board you have you can give a clear description of to easily compute the total number of squares. So basically what you’re doing is finding the total number of squares in a 8 x 8 checkerboard and pretty much finding an equation on how to find the total number of squares on any size board.…

    The Big Knight Switch

    • 556 Words
    • 3 Pages

    To solve this POW I read over exactly what it was asking and what the rules to solving it were. The easiest method to solve it was by using a picture of a 3x3 chess/checkerboard. I started out with drawing a 3x3 square and marking the positions on the board where the 2 white and 2 black knights were. To keep track of which knight was which, I labeled on the top and bottom of the chess/checkerboard where each knight started out, because when I first started out I forgot where each knight began. When I moved one knight, I drew an arrow to the spot where I wanted the knight to go, and then showed the moved knight in the 3x3 square, along with another arrow showing a different knight moving. To keep track of the various moves that the knights took, for every new move the knights took, I drew a new 3x3 square and I drew where the knights from the previous square moved (drawn by arrows) ended up.…
