Squares are geometric figures characterized by having all faces with the same dimensions. In this way, a constant figure is obtained. In this engraving, it is possible to observe squares that have the same size, highlighted in purple, as well as pink, green and orange squares that also seem to follow a proportionality with each other.
The challenge therefore consists in calculating all the visible squares and saying the total amount of squares available in the image. Have you tried this challenge yet?
SPOILER: Tips for completing the challenge quickly
It is worth remembering that, if you want to test your knowledge without any kind of tip, we recommend not viewing this section. Skip directly to the next result when you finish your challenge. However, if you have already seen the result or want some tips, just continue reading.
A good trick for counting squares would be to multiply the number of columns (vertical) by the number of rows (horizontal). Start doing this process with the lilac squares. Repeat the process with the orange, green and pink squares.
Don't forget to count the squares that contain all the other squares, that is, the biggest lilac square, the biggest orange square, the biggest green square and, finally, the biggest pink square.
Then, just add up all the squares that you counted separately and you'll get the final answer to your challenge.
The number of squares is 51! Chances are, if you found 50, you forgot to count the biggest square of all, which is the purple one (which, in turn, contains all the other squares).
