To find out which board covers the roof space, we need to compare their sizes in square feet.
- The first board: 1 square yard = 9 square feet (1 yard = 3 feet, so 1 yd² = 3ft * 3ft = 9ft²).
- The second board: 3 feet x 3 feet = 9 square feet.
- The third board: 36 inches x 36 inches = 1296 square inches. Converting to square feet, 1296 square inches ÷ 144 = 9 square feet.
All three boards measure 9 square feet, so they will cover the roof space equally.
