    This is the concept of volumes of solid materials, the volume of lumber is given by:

    volume=length*width*height

    Volume=2*8*12=192in^3

    The number of times a board whose volume is 144 in^3 would fit into the lumber will be given by:

    [volume of lumber]/[volume of board]

    =192/144

    =1 1/3=4/3 times
