If you folded a peice of paper 50 times and the thickness was .1 mm when you started how thick would it be?
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

Why can't a sheet of paper be folded more than eight times?
It is hard to explain, but it basically amounts to the size to fold ratio. A large enough, thin enough, sheet of paper can be folded more than eight times, but it has to be the size of a football field in order to do it. 128 layers of paper is a lot to fold in half to get to 256!

Did a high-school graduate solve the paper-folding problem by folding a piece of paper twelve times?
Think about it, a single piece of paper that is folded 12 times would end up being 2 raised to the 11th power in thickness. It's one of those problems that seems easy, but in reality doesn't make sense. Within just a few folds, you aren't really "folding" the paper any more, it's more like "bending" it, and besides, the original piece of paper would need to be quite large so that you could keep folding it. IN ADDITION: If you fold a piece of paper 7 times, you have expended the area that you have to fold. So unless you have supernatural abilities, you cannot make more folds, if you have any more, tell me.
