Answer:

They use same amount of their boards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Boards are the same size

2/3 = 4/6 as is;  

3/3 = 1

2/3 = 6.66...rep   to 1

4/6 = 6.66...rep   to 1

They are the same we can now divide

2/3 goes 2.5

4/6 goes 2.5

= the same and equal fractions, Josh board part as a fraction is  just reduced fraction but same scale to 1
