The correct option will be: c. 8 pieces of wood.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of pieces of wood along each side of the chess board is

The area of each piece of wood is given as 1 square inch. So, the length of each piece of wood will be: $\sqrt{1}= 1$ inch.

And the total length of number of pieces of wood will be: inches.

Given that, the area of the chess board is 64 square inches. So, the length of each side will be: $\sqrt{64}=8$ inches.

Thus, the equation will be.........

$1x=8\\ \\ x=\frac{8}{1}=8$

So, he should put 8 pieces of wood along each side.
