81 Basic PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System) Cards, which are designed to help individuals, especially children with autism or communication difficulties, express their needs and wants through pictures.
However, there is no specific
task or problem visible in the image itself. The image appears to be a promotional graphic for a downloadable PDF containing these PECS cards.
What Are PECS Cards?

If You Have a Task...
Since no explicit task is shown in the image, here are some possible ways this could be used as a problem-solving activity:
#### Example Task:
> *"Using the PECS cards, create a sentence for 'I want more apple juice.' How would you arrange the cards?"*
Solution:
1. Select the
"I want" card (not shown, but implied).
2. Use the
"more" card.
3. Use the
"apple" card.
4. Use the
"drink" card.
5. Combine them:
"More" → "apple" → "drink".
This teaches sequencing and expression.

Conclusion:
The image is not a problem to solve but rather a product showcase. If you intended to ask a specific question about how to use these cards, interpret a sequence, or create a communication board, please clarify your
task or question, and I’ll be happy to help!
