  1. There are 51 puzzle pieces. I figured it out by measuring the length and the width. That makes 54. Then there are 3 pieces missing so I subtract 3 from 54 and that makes 51. BOOM! I DID IT! PRAISE ME! PRAISE ME!

  2. There are 51 puzzle pieces. I multiplied what it would be if there were no pieces missing by counting the two adjacent sides, which equaled 54. Then I subtracted 3 from 54, which got me to 51 puzzle pieces.

  3. 51 is the answer I did 9×6=54 and then there was 3 missing so I subtract 3 and I got 51

  4. I think that there are 47 pieces there, but 50 in total. 3 pieces are missing. I know because I counted.

    My papa and I noticed there were 6 pieces in each horizontal row and 9 rows. 9×6=54 -3 = 51 since 3 pieces were missing.
