It depends on how precise you need to be.\n\nIf you're looking for a rough estimate a micrometer or caliper would be fine, though they will always underestimate the thickness since the paper will distort under the pressure of the instrument.\n\nIf you can assume that your piece of paper is of uniform thickness (and you have many pieces) you can measure the stack and divide by the number of sheets.  If you only have one piece you can fold it into a stack, measure that thickness and divide by the number of folds.  \n\nIf this is only a hypothetical question or you have some money to spend there are laser micrometers that can measure the thickness of transparent or semi-opaque films down to a few microns.

10 percoset should do the trick\nThis is a joke....just in case you are dumb enough to try it.lol

Tear a piece of paper up into ten pieces.  Write down an option on each and then fold them up.  Now, mix them up a bit and then draw one out.  Do whatever option you draw.  Have Fun!!!

Ok.. first.. I think you are making 11" folds and not folding it across the shorter way.\n\n I don't think you want equal folds.. because if you do then the right side will hit the left side when you fold it in and fold the left side over it.\n\nIf you make the left section 3" and the middle section 3" then the right section will be only 2.5" and you will have a 1/2 inch gap.. this may be too big for your purposes.. so you might reduce the left and middle sections by about 1/8"\n\nthen... left and middle are 2-7/8" each... and the right side is 2-3/4"  or.. easier to compare.. you may want to call it 2-6/8" and 1/8" is a decent gap.. allowing for fold differences.

Not sure, but all of the paper sizes tie into each other. It has to do with filing.  Fold a 11x17 in half, you get a 8.5x11...fold a 22x34 in half you've got 11x17, fold again 8.5x17.......you get the picture. Not sure where it all started though!

Hiraktokus breaks stick in two pieces, and holds pieces up, says "here is one stick half, and here is another stick half.   Each is a half stick, this is one half stick, and this other is also one half stick."  So it came to pass that stick cut in half is one-half stick. The develope of fractionism. This was not mathematics; this was breaking of stick.

Twice as long as it is from one to the middle!  How did I do?  This is the correct answer by the way.

he takes 2 paper plates, and cuts one of them in half and the other in fourhths. then he adds the half plate wiht the fourht plate and you ask him how many fourths of a plate he has.

Fold the circle in half\n\nStart to fold the half in half again, but only crease it near the 90 degree angle formed; this identifies the center of the circle.  Open it back up to where it's only folded in half once.\n\nFold the half into thirds with each of the 2 folds running through the center of the circle\n\nFold once more in half, again with the fold running through the center of the circle.  You Now have something close to a skinny triangle\n\nHolding the skinny triangle pointing up, cut from just above the bottom right corner to about midway of the opposite long side.  \n\nBTW, you don't have to actually start with a circle.  You can just start with a regular sheet of paper if you adjust the cut for the correct results. Mine came out nice!

It would take the 15 people 4 hours to do 50 papers (half the time for half the work).\n\nSince there are only 2/5 of the people, the time taken will be 5/2 as long, or 10 hours.

yes we did it in science class.  I forget how exactly but you fold the paper and then start cutting tiny rows but everyother row you change directions and then open it up when you are done and you get a loop of paper like a hoop and then you can step through it.  E-mail me for more details at fairy_dust_xo@yahoo.com  Hope this helps!

If you fold A in half (right onto left) the two halves match.  Same goes for H, I, M, O, T, U, V, W, X,and Y. If you fold B in half (top on to bottom) the two halves match.  Same goes for C, D, E, H, I, K, O, and X.  Instead of folding you could use a mirror along the centre line.

divide it by as much as you like ... let's say you can make it yield to infinitely small.\nthink of it this way : why should there be a "limit"?
