CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. 1×11 \times 1 squares: 5×2=105 \times 2 = 10.

  2. 2×22 \times 2 squares: 4×1=44 \times 1 = 4.

  3. Total =10+4=14= 10 + 4 = 14.

Worth noting

10 counts only the smallest squares. Count every size: a 5×25 \times 2 grid holds squares from 1×11 \times 1 up to 2×22 \times 2.
