Hi steve4212

I think you'll find that the answer to your question is that there
are:

   64 squares on a chessboard.

Solution strategy:

The answer "just came to me", but to verify I did a Google search for
"64 S on a C":
://www.google.co.uk/search?q=%2264%20=%20S%20on%20a%20C%22

and one of the links returned pointed me to:
http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/prb_num2.htm
where solution number 23 verifies this (it actually gives the solution
as Squares on a Checkerboard).

Regards
