$\qquad\qquad\underline{\textsf{\textbf{ \color{magenta}{AnSwEr} }}}$

First, convert everything into one unit. Let’s do centimeters.

One piece of plywood = 0.25 cm

The thickness required is 1.5 meters, or 150 centimeters, since there are 100 centimeters in a meter (fun fact: there are 1,000 millimeters in a meter).

Now all that is required is to divide 150 by 0.25 and you get 600.

ANSWER:

You need six hundred (600) pieces of plywood that are a quarter of a centimeter (0.25 cm) thick to get a pile 1.5 meters (or 1,500 millimeters) high.
