Ok I think that and actual 1x12x10 is actually 1"x11.25"x10 feet...they arent actually 12 inches wide. You don't need the thickness so it is just 11.25 inches wide by 10 feet long or .94 feet by 10 feet. (11.25 inches divided by 12 inches...aka one foot...equals .94 because you need it to be in the same units). Each board therefore has a surface area of 9.4 feet squared ( .94 feet *10 feet = 9.4 feet squared). Then you take your 1000 square feet and divide it by 9.4 feet squared ... 1000 \ 9.4 = 106 boards. I usually buy an extra 10 % for errors and cuts if you are doing a floor, but your question doesn't mention what you need it for.
