The task is: A pile of 8 similar books is 56 cm high. Find the height of 6 such books.
Please note that a pictorial representation of a situation does not have to be ‘as in the real world’. For example here, a ‘pile’ can also be depicted horizontally.
This task is adapted from ‘Max Maths Primary – A Singapore Approach’.
