Video Summary

Matthew the mouse needs to navigate a grid to reach pieces of cheese, only moving right or down as the arrows indicate. By calculating routes for each grid cell, starting with the top-left cell where there's only one way, we determine pathways to subsequent cells based on adding the number of routes from the cells above and to the left. Specifically, reaching central grid points offers multiple routes, influencing surrounding paths. Ultimately, reaching any piece of cheese yields a combined total of 8 routes. The answer to how many different routes Matthew can take is 8.
