We can observe a 2 0 0 × 2 0 0 table (without a last column). This part of table we can divide on 4 2 0 0 2 disjoint squares with dimensions 2 × 2 , so in this part we can paint at most 2 ⋅ 4 2 0 0 2 cells. In last column we have 200 cells, so in this table is painted at most 4 2 0 0 2 + 2 0 0 = 2 0 0 ⋅ 1 0 1 cells. If we paint every second column (starting at first column) we obtain requested painting and number of painted cells is 20200
