The right answer is 1. It's a pretty well-known puzzle though. You can read all about it here.

So I got the right answer and the new puzzle is How many squares are there on a chess board?

No Googling!

brugmand

65 including the bord ?

Absoluvely

More than 65. You're on the right track though.

Wichita Lineman

67 - the squares on the board, the board itself and the 2 squares playing it ha ha - no offense intended to chess players it's just a guess.

Absoluvely

Nope. It's more than 67.

There are sixty-four "1x1" squares and there's one "8x8" square [the board]. You just gotta find out how many "2x2" squares and "3x3" squares and so on there are and add them up.

brugmand

204 ?

Absoluvely

Yup!

How can you make this sum add up by using just one stroke of the pen (obviously you'll need to write it down although I just checked there and you can do it on the keyboard)

5+5+5 = 550
