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.

800 feet / 10 foot per board = 80 boards
6 inch = 1/2 foot so each board is 16 x 1/2 = 8 square feet 200/8 = 25 boards
i have a 1250 square foot deck and need to figure out how many linear feet of decking material I need. the boards are 6 X 10
1 square foot is created by 3 feet of 4 inch wide boards.This can be seen by laying 3 boards each a foot long next to each other.It follows that:32 * 3 = 96 linear feet of board to cover 32 square feet of surface.The formula:(12/#widthOfBoardInInches#) * #squareFeetToCover# = #linearFeetNeeded#
A 30 foot circle covers about 707 square feet. 23 pieces would technically cover that. I'd get 30 of them so I wouldn't have to cut any of them.
