Answer:

200 boards

Explanation:

The can of pint covers 37.5 square meters

The area of each board is 3/16 square meters= 0.1875 square meters

Number of boards required= Total area to paint/ Area of one board

Number of boards=37.5 square meters/0.1875 square meters

Boards=200 boards

Therefore, Tom requires 200 boards
