Question

Use any model to solve the story problem. A single board is 1/12 meter thick. How many boards are there in a stack of boards that is 2 meters high?

Answer 1

If a single board measures 1/12 of a meter then it would take 12 boards to make a meter. Since, the stack is 2 meters high. You would multiply 12 and 2 to get 24. There is 24 boards in the stack.
