Use the ruler to measure the total height of each stake , then divide the result by 3/16 to determine the number of sheets of cardboard in a stake.
In this case, number of sheets =
[tex]2 \ \frac{1}{4}\% \frac{3}{16} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{9}{4} \% \frac{3}{16} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{9}{4} \times \frac{16}{3} [/tex]
[tex] = 12 \: sheets[/tex]
The expression that can be used to determine the number of sheets of cardboard is given as
[tex] \frac{h}{3} \\ 16| [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{16h}{3} [/tex]
If h represent the height of each stake, then the number of sheets will be given as 16h/3 sheets.
Where h = height of eachs stake
