5.50 Inches Wide
a "2x6" board is actually 1 1/2" x5 1/2"
surf board
An expression. It can be factored out slightly too: 2x6 + 5x3 - 7x4 = x3(2x3 - 7x + 5)

Answer this question… What is the degree of 5x7 - 4x5 + 2x6 - x4? A. 7 B. 6 C. 4 D. 5
The recommended span for a 2x6 board is typically around 8 to 12 feet, depending on the load it needs to support.
The maximum span for a 2x6 board is typically around 10 feet when used as a joist or rafter in construction.
A 2x6 board can span up to 9 feet without any additional support.
A 2x6 board can span up to 9 feet without support, depending on the type of wood and the load it needs to bear.

A 2X6 is 5 1/2 inches wide. Incidentally it's 1 1/2 inches thick. Pre-WWII lumber was cut at stated dimensions, a 2x4 was actually 2 inches by 4 inches.
To determine how many 2x6 boards are needed to cover 196 square feet, first calculate the area of one 2x6 board. A 2x6 board is actually 1.5 inches by 5.5 inches, which converts to 0.125 feet by 0.458 feet, giving an area of about 0.0574 square feet. Dividing 196 square feet by 0.0574 square feet per board results in approximately 3,417 boards. Therefore, you would need about 3,417 boards to cover 196 square feet.
I am going to guess that you are talking about the fascia board which is usually a 2x6 board
A nominal 2x6 baord is actually 5.5" wide. 5.5"/12"=0.45833ft => 0.45833ft x 300ft = 137.5 sq-ft
a "2x6" board is actually 1 1/2" x5 1/2"
At one time, sawmills cut green lumber to 2"x8". A higher-humidity board would shrink more than an dryer board, and in any case, the board would be reduced in size by planing (smoothing the rough-cut sides.) Seems to me that the industry standardized the size of wood about 40 yeas ago. Now, sawmills calculate the size to cut so that dried and planed wood will be a standard size when dried. A 2x6 is actually 1.5 inches thick and 7.25 inches wide.
