    I make it 40, too - 16 + the 2 hovering squares, the 8 inside those 2 hovering squares, by quartering the outside square, and gradually moving round you find 8 more + the quarter in the very middle, which so far makes 35, then there are 4 3x3 squares + the very outside one = 40

    RBF bor, I miscalculated on the 3x3s, should be 4 not 8.

    1 large square
    8 smallest squares
    4 3x3s
    18 1x1s
    9 2x2s
    Total 40 squares. RBF bor, I bow to your calculating genius LOL.

    Thanks for ruining the fun redruth... <doh>. That's cheating.


    Answer is 40. 16 squares, 2 smaller off centre squares, these squares divided into 8, 1 big square, 4 lots of 3x3 squares, 9 lots of 2x2 squares.
