yes it is. Britney Gallivan folded it 12 times in 2002 after coming up with an exact limiting equation.

Can you fold an office paper 7 times?
In half each time, is very unlikely.
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.
How many times can you fold a dollar bill before it begins to fall apart?
I believe it is 7
What is 2.54 times 7?
The answer is 17.78 I did it on paper but you can also do it on a calculator
Can you fold a piece of paper more than 7 times?
Yes. You can. If you fold it, turn 90 degrees and fold it again. I saw it on myth busters. They folded a paper the size of a football field 11 times. with the help from NASA. But with a regular 11x8 paper, i don't think it is possible.

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.
What is the limit of even folds you can fold in a piece of paper?
7-8 times
Why cant you fold a piece of paper more than 7 times?
You can. The present record is 12 times
Can you fold an office paper 7 times?
In half each time, is very unlikely.
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.
How do you fold printer paper 8 times?
It is mathematically and physically impossible to fold a single sheet of printer paper in half more than 7 times. This is because each additional fold increases the thickness exponentially, making it increasingly difficult to fold further. Folded more than 7 times, the paper would become too thick to fold cleanly.
Can you only fold paper 7 times?
In theory, you can fold a paper an infinite number of times. However, in practice, it becomes extremely difficult to fold a paper more than 7-8 times due to the limitations of paper thickness and size.
Can paper be folded in half more than 7 times?
In theory, paper can be folded in half more than 7 times, but it becomes increasingly difficult as the number of folds increases. The thickness of the paper and its size are limiting factors that make it practically impossible to fold a standard piece of paper more than 7-8 times.

What is the world record for most times to fold a paper?
a) It depends on paper size, and the quality of the paper.b) A piece of paper may be folded in half approximately 6-7 times consecutively, without unfolding, since the seventh fold and beyond would require bending hundreds (2^n) of layers .MythBusters managed to fold a football field sized piece of paper 11 times.
