Everybody knows that you can't fold a piece of paper more than 7 times, unless you have a really big sheet of very thin paper and a steamroller. Then you can get to 12. If you could though, it be be 2^50 which is a very large number indeed. 1.1259E+12 sounds good.thorman75 said:yes it's Saturday. :)
If you took a piece of paper .001" thick and folded(doubled) it 50 times,how thick would it be?
