That's 45 chapters though. That's not 38 volumes with about 10 chapters each. Plus, they couldn't do that because of all of the individual single stories in the beginning.

My belief is that they could start out by doing two stories per episode (have them separated by the commercial break spot at the halfway point) except for the stories that took more than 1 manga chapter like Death T and the Dark RPG. Those would probably need 2-3 episodes each. Duelist Kingdom could be done in roughly 25 episodes, Battle City would be the biggest with about 30 episodes, while the Memories arc would be about 15-20, with the final 2 episodes of the show being the Atem/Yugi duel.
