Question

In how many ways two squares can be selected from a 8 × 8 chess board so that they are not in the
same row or same column

Answer 1

Answer:

We will draw a normal chessboardhaving 8 rows and 8 columns. So in the figure, 1 represents the 1st square and hence we can select the 1st square in 64ways. Now it is given in the question that the two small squares are not in the same row or same column.

Answer 2

$\huge\rm{Answer:}$

Clearly, the first square can be chosen in (64C1) = 64 ways.

For every choice of the first square, total 15 squares are not available for the choice of second square (7 other squares lengthwise, 7 other squares breadthwise and 1 square for that one already chosen as the first square). So, for every choice of the first square, (49C1) = 49 ways one can choose the second square.

But, one more knot is left to be untied!

As per above procedure, the entire selection process is doubled. This is because, suppose, in any outcome, we selected the square at (1, 1) as the first square and (2, 3) as the second square. Now, in another outcome, the squares at (2, 3) and (1, 1) may be the first and the second choice respectively. But, these two outcomes lead to the same duo; hence, these two outcomes give same result.

So, the answer to this question is [(64*49) / 2] = 1568.
