The correct answer is
30

To determine the total number of squares in the given figure, we can count the squares of different sizes.

  1. First, count the number of 1x1 squares:
    • There are 16 small squares (1x1) as the figure is a 4x4 grid of smallest squares.
  2. Next, count the number of 2x2 squares:
    • A 4x4 grid can contain 9 squares of size 2x2.
  3. Then, count the number of 3x3 squares:
    • A 4x4 grid can contain 4 squares of size 3x3.
  4. Finally, count the number of 4x4 squares:
    • There is only 1 square of size 4x4, which is the largest square covering the whole grid.

Adding these all together gives us the total number of squares:

\(16 + 9 + 4 + 1 = 30\)

Therefore, the correct answer is 30.
