Expressed as a ratio, the board lengths are 1:3.

Then the sum of the "ratio units" is 1+3=4, so each "ratio unit" must represent (48 in)/4 = 12 in of board.

The piece that is 1 ratio unit long is 1*12 in = 12 in.
The piece that is 3 ratio units long is 3*12 in = 36 in.

The pieces are 12 in and 36 in long.

What is continuous​ compounding? how does the apy for continuous compounding compare to the apy​ for, say, daily​ compounding? e
aliya0001 [1]
Continuous compounding is the mathematical limit that compound interest can reach.

It is the limit of the function A(1 + 1/n) ^ n as n approaches infinity. IN theory interest is added to the initial amount A  every infinitesimally small  instant.
The limit  of (1 + 1/n)^n is the number e ( = 2.718281828 to 9 dec places).

Say we invest  $1000  at daily compounding at yearly interest of 2 %. After 1 year the $1000 will increase to:-

1000 ( 1 + 0.02/365)^365 = $1020.20

with continuous compounding this will be 

1000 * e^1  =  $2718.28
