To calculate the number of sheets needed to make a one-yard pile, we need to know the thickness of each sheet. If the thickness of each sheet is 0.01 inches, then there would be 36 sheets in a one-yard pile (since there are 36 inches in a yard). This calculation is based on the assumption that the sheets are stacked perfectly without any gaps or compression.

Well honey, a yard is equal to 36 inches, and a standard sheet of paper is about 0.01 inches thick. So, to make a one yard pile, you would need approximately 3,600 sheets of paper. Hope that clears things up for ya!
The ancient Egyptians could hammer gold into a sheet so thin that it required 367,000 sheets to make a 1-inch pile.
76 fist pile, 100 second pil, 200 in the third pile
Let x = third pile First Pile = 2x + 10 Second Pile = 2x Third Pile = x (2x+10) + (2x) + (x) = 3000 2x + x + 2x + 10 = 3000 5x + 10 = 3000 5x = 3000 - 10 5x = 2990 x = 2990/5 x = 598 Therefore there are 598 books in the third pile. I'm sure you can figure out how to get how many books are in all other piles.

It is physically impossible to fold a piece of paper in half more than 8 times. However, assuming you could do it (though it would be easier to cut the pile so far in half and put one half on top of the other), then: After 1 fold the stack has 2 sheets After 2 folds the stack has 4 sheets After 3 folds the stack has 8 sheets After n folds the stack has 2^n sheets After 50 folds the stack will be 2⁵⁰ sheets thick As each sheet is 0.1mm, the stack will be: 2⁵⁰ × 0.1 mm = 112589990684262.4 mm thick = 112589990.6842624 km thick ≈ 1.126 × 10¹¹ m thick
