Algebra Problem 17
Grid Scoring

Ms. Hart puts a math problem in each square of a 3x3 grid.  Each problem solved correctly is one point, with an additional point for every three in a row correct.  The highest score possible for a 3x3 grid would be 17 points.  Sometimes she uses a 4x4 grid, with an additional point for every 4 in a row.  Sometimes the grid is a 5x5, 6x6, etc.

Find a pattern to determine the highest score possible no matter what size square grid Ms. Hart uses.
