1 x 8 x 16 board has a thickness of 1 in, 8 in width, and 16 in length. To cover an area of 1000 square feet the thickness does not play a part, it is irrelevant. Need to convert 8 in and 16 in to feet.

8 in = 2/3 feet

16 in = 1 and 4/12 feet = 1 and 1/3 feet = 4/3 feet

Hence are of one board is (2/3) x (4/3) = 8/9 square feet

Therefore number of boards needed = (1000) / (8/9) = (1000 x 9) / 8 = 125 x 9 which is equal to 1125 boards

How many 16 foot x 6in boards are needed to cover 658 square feet?

To cover 658 square feet using 16 feet x 6 inch boards, we first need to convert the board dimensions to the same unit. Since 6 inches is half a foot, the boards are actually 16 feet x 0.5 feet in size. This gives a total area of 8 square feet per board. Therefore, 658 square feet would require 658 / 8 = 82.25 boards, but since we can't have a fraction of a board, you would need 83 boards to cover 658 square feet.
