For this case we have that the height of the stack of sheets is given by the number of sheets multiplied by the thickness of each. That is to say:

[tex]\frac {3} {16} * 14 = \frac {14 * 3} {16} = \frac {42} {16} = \frac {21} {8} = 2.625[/tex]

Thus, the height of the stack is 2,625 inches

Answer:

2.625 inches
