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.
What else can I help you with?
If you fold a piece of paper in half 50 times how tall would it be?
You can't fold a piece of paper 50 times
Can a piece of square dry paper be folded more than 7 times in half?
No, a piece of square dry paper cannot be folded in half more than seven times due to the exponential increase in thickness and decrease in surface area with each fold. Each fold doubles the thickness of the paper, making it increasingly difficult to fold further. In practice, most people find that they can only fold a standard piece of paper about 6 to 7 times.
If you fold paper 9 times how many sections will you get?
Impossible question to answer. No piece of paper can be folded more than seven times. Most, no more than 5. Depending on how you fold, anywhere from 10 to 512 with the limitation implied above.
How many times can a piece of a4 paper be folded in half?
Any size sheet of paper can only be folded in half 7 times.
How many times can you fold in half a piece of square paper?
You can typically fold a piece of square paper in half about seven times before it becomes too thick to fold further. Each fold doubles the thickness of the paper, making it increasingly difficult to fold. The exact number may vary depending on the size and thickness of the paper, as well as the method used for folding. However, the general rule is that after the seventh fold, it becomes impractical to continue.
Can a piece of paper be folded more than seven times?
Yes it is possible. But the paper does have to be very big and thinner than an ordinary piece of paper.
Is it possible to fold a piece of paper in half more than seven times?
No... it is impossible... but Walk Disney said "Its kinda fun to do the impossible"
How many times does 439 go into 93?
I did it it on a piece of paper and the answer is: Four with a remainder of seven.
How many times can you fold an A4 piece of paper in half?
It is generally believed that an A4 piece of paper can be folded in half approximately seven to eight times due to the thickness of the paper increasing with each fold, making it increasingly difficult to fold further.
How many times can you fold a newspaper?
As many times as you want or need to. I hoped this helped!!!!!!! Wrong!^You can only fold a piece of paper up to seven times, no matter how large the piece of paper. So technically, this statement is very wrong! Sorry to whoever answered this before me.
If you fold a piece of paper in half 50 times how tall would it be?
You can't fold a piece of paper 50 times
How many times you can fold a square paper?
It's theoretically impossible to fold a standard piece of paper more than seven to eight times due to physical constraints. As the number of folds increases, the thickness of the paper grows exponentially, making it impossible to fold any further.
What is a piece of paper?
Paper in Egyptian times was called Papyrus's.
How many folds are there?
It depends on the context. In general, you can fold a piece of paper in half multiple times, although the number of folds possible is limited by the thickness of the paper and the dexterity of the folder. Mathematically, the maximum number of times a piece of paper can be folded in half is around 7-8 times due to the exponential increase in thickness with each fold.
If a piece of paper is folded 9 times how many sections will there be?
It's physically impossible to fold a piece of paper more than 7 times.
Can you only fold paper 7 times?
yes if it is not in half, but if you you mean in half, then: A normal piece of paper, no. The width becomes to thick and the length too small. But here are some websites where they get a huge piece of paper so the length doesn't become too small, and they can do it 11 or 12 times: http://pomonahistorical.org/12times.htm http://blogs.howstuffworks.com/2009/07/23/why-cant-you-fold-a-piece-of-paper-more-than-seven-times/
How many times can an a4 piece of paper be folded in half?
Any paper can be folded in half for 6 times.
