Correct Answer: 32
Solution : The correct answer is 32.
A gameboard used to play chess is called a chessboard. The chess pieces are arranged on 64 squares, each measuring eight rows by eight columns. Its shape is square, and its pattern is a checkerboard made of two hues of squares—one light and one dark. 32 squares are white, and 32 are dark. The board is set up so that each player's near-right corner square is light while the game is in progress.
Total number of squares on a chessboard = 64 + 49 + 36 + 25 + 16 + 9 + 4 + 1 = 204 squares.
