To find out how many boards are in the pile, we need to divide the total height of the pile by the thickness of each board.
Total height of the pile = 36 cm
Thickness of each board = 0.8 cm
Number of boards = Total height of the pile / Thickness of each board
Number of boards = 36 cm / 0.8 cm
Number of boards = 45 boards
Therefore, there are 45 boards in the pile.
