Let the number of boards be n.

Since each of them is
[tex] \frac{1}{12} [/tex]
meter thick,

All the n boards will be,

[tex] \frac{1}{12} \times n[/tex]
meters thick or high.

Since all the board is 2 meters high, it means,

[tex] \frac{1}{12} n = 2[/tex]
Multiplying through by 12,

n = 2×12

n = 24.

There are 24 boards in the stack.

Alternatively,

Since each board is
[tex] \frac{1}{12} [/tex]
meters thick, the number of boards that will be 2 meters high is ;

[tex] \frac{2}{ \frac{1}{12} } [/tex]
This is
[tex] = 2 \times \frac{12}{1} [/tex]
[tex] = 24[/tex]
