Blue green red yellow brown purple --60
Blue green red yellow -- 64
maximum number of blue squares -- 11

Answer 2

The answer is 11. If you divided 64 by 6(as there are six colors), then you will get 10.something. But there are still 4 squares left, in which blue is the first, so it means that the color blue comes 11 times maximum
