Cynthia was paid 20 cents pr board for painting the fence. If she was paid $10 for painting half the boards, how many boards were there?

100 boards

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

We are told that Cynthia was paid 20 cents per board for painting the fence

that is for 1 board painted she gets $0.2

If she was paid $10

let us find the number of boards she painted for $10

= 10/0.2

=50 boards

This means that the total boards were 50*2= 100 boards

-2 is the right
