Best Answer

A sheet of standard copy paper is about .004 in thick.

100 sheets would therefore have a thickness of about 0.4 in.

Modern, lightweight paper sold for home printing is much thinner and 500 sheets have a thickness of 1" approx. So, 100 sheets would be about 0.2 in.

If you folded a piece a paper 50 times how tall would it be?

A normal piece of paper is about 0.0038 inches thick. So, if the paper were to be folded 50 times, it would become, essentially, 1,125,899,906,842,624 pieces of paper stacked upon one another. Therefore, you would multiply the above number by 0.0038 and that would be 4278419646001.97 inches or 67,525,562.594 miles of paper. So, a normal 8 1/2 by 11 piece of paper folded 50 times would be 67,525,562.594 miles, which is 141 times the distance the Moon is to the Earth.

Is it possible to fold a piece of paper more than seven times?

nope ive tried it :( multiple times....Well, it depends on what you mean. Of course you can fold a piece of paper lots of times. What you can not do is fold a piece of paper in half lots of times.Your typical piece of paper is about 0.1mm thick. Each fold in half doubles the thickness, so by the time you have folded it 7 times it is 2^7*0.1 mm thick, that's 12.8mm, call it 1/2 an inch thick. And by then your piece of paper is rather small. If it started 8 1/2 x 11, it is now 11/8 x 17/8 inches, or about 1 1/2 inches by 2 inches. (ignoring the size of he folds)The next fold would make it 1 inch thick, and the outside of the fold would be a half circle 1/2 inch radius using pi/2 inches of paper, call it 1 1/2 inches. This isn't going to work.
