I'm confused as to how they calculated the number of blocks from the 220 street and 8 avenues given on the table.

Ok this is super easy with a structure ^^
STRUCTURE RULES: Structure with small numbers such as 1,2,3. Then find the patterns. They apply this to the prompt number. In the long term when you are structured this is very easy.
Column structure
| 1 avenue = 0 block column
|x| 2 avenues = 1 block column
|x|x| 3 avenues = 2 block columns
So n avenue = n-1 block columns
Conclusion
|_|_|_|_|_|_|_| 8 avenues = 7 block columns
Row structure
_ 1 street = 0 block row
_
x 2 streets = 1 block row
_
x 3 streets = 2 block rows
x
So n street = n-1 block rows
Conclusion
220 streets = 219 block rows
Block structure

|x| 2 avenues x 2 streets = 1 column x 1 row = 1 block

|x|x| 3 avenues x 2 streets = 2 columns x 1 row = 2 blocks

|x|x|
|x|x| 3 avenues x 3 streets = 2 columns x 2 rows = 4 blocks
so 8 avenues x 220 columns = 7 avenues x 219 columns = 1533 blocks
Upvote if was useful ;)
Honestly?
This is a pretty crazy question! I cannot see this question being on a real case.
Rather, they would just expect you to multiply 220 by 8.
