how many cord

2/3 of a cord. 14x4x1.5=84/128=.65

Well a cord is 4x4x8 yes but tightly stacked, a pile is not well stacked so id say your pile will stack out at a little over a 1/2 maybe 2/3. The only way youll know for sure is to stack it

Dammit!My calculations came out to be 4ths.

Hey Titan don't feel bad, your answer was about 2/3 correct.

Btw send me a PM and let me know what going on

We homeschool and I used a very similar problem in math for my 12yr old son, just last week. We're stacking our wood on pallets that are 3 feet wide. First I had him calculate the cubic footage in one cord. Then, assuming a tight stack, I had him figure out how long would a 3 foot wide X four foot tall stack have to be to measure one cord. Finally, if I wanted to keep the pile 8 ft long, how high would I have to go? I think I'll give him this one as a follow-up.

For the final exam, I think I'll tell him to split a cord to check his answer with...
