The circumference of the Earth (around the equator) is approximately 40,075.02 kilometers.
The longest side of a paper, which is 11 inches, is 0.0002794 kilometers.
Assuming the papers are placed so that the longest side follows the equator, and that each shortest side touches the two adjacent papers without any gap or overlapping, you can divide the equator's length by the length of a single paper to find:
143432426.628489621, or 143,432,427 sheets of paper.

How many dollar bills would it take laying end to end to circle the earth?

It takes 41,851,655 U.S. dollar bills laying end to end to circle the earth. 24,902 Earth's circumference in miles X 5,280 (feet per mile) = 21,414,097 circumference of Earth in feet. 21,414,097 x 12 = 256,969,164 circumference of earth in inches. 256,969,164 / 6.14 inches (length of U.S. dollar bill) = 41,851,655 United States paper currency to encircle the earth if placed end to end. (DON'T PICK ON THE ROUNDING ERRORS, I DID THIS WITH PAPER AND PENCIL) 382,302 trips around the earth with U.S. ONE DOLLAR bills would almost cover the nations $16,000,000,000,000 (Trillion) debt. OR 3,823 trips around the earth with U.S. ONE-HUNDRED DOLLAR bills (the largest denomination currently printed in the U.S.) would almost cover our 16 Trillion Dollar Debt.


Myra draws and cuts out 8 planets for a class project she pastes each planet on a separate sheet of paper how many sheets of paper did Myra use?

From the data given in the question the only certainty is that at least 8 sheets of paper have been used - the 8 sheets onto which the cut-outs have been pasted. There is no statement in the question as to on what the planets were drawn before they were cut out. For example the planets could have all been drawn on a single piece of cardboard before being cut out and then pasted to a sheet of paper: each planet having a separate sheet of paper so that they could be attached to the wall in order from their sun with information regarding distance from their sun, the length of their day (in earth hours), the length of their year (in earth days/years), etc. Or perhaps they were drawn on a single sheet of paper, making the total 9 sheets; Or perhaps they were drawn on more sheets of paper - two or three smaller planets on a single sheet - adding two or more sheets of paper; Or perhaps a single sheet of paper is used per planet for the drawing, adding an extra 8 sheets. Therefore Myra used between 8 and 16 inclusive sheers of paper.
