How many pieces of one half
in. plywood are there in a stack 48 in.​ high?

To find how many pieces of 1/2-inch plywood are in a stack that is 48 inches high, we can use the following calculation:

1. Each piece of plywood is 1/2 inch thick.
2. The total height of the stack is 48 inches.
3. Divide the total height by the thickness of each piece:

\[
\frac{48}{\frac{1}{2}} = 48 \times 2 = 96
\]

So, there are 96 pieces of 1/2-inch plywood in a 48-inch high stack.
