Start with a 8 by 8 board of squares (for instance, a chessboard) and take away the top-left and bottom-right corner squares so that there are 62 squares left. Take some dominoes that are the same size as two squares of the chessboard. Can you cover the 62 squares of the board with 31 such dominoes? If so, how? If not, why?
