Is it possible to fold a piece of paper more than seven times?
nope ive tried it :( multiple times....Well, it depends on what you mean. Of course you can fold a piece of paper lots of times. What you can not do is fold a piece of paper in half lots of times.Your typical piece of paper is about 0.1mm thick. Each fold in half doubles the thickness, so by the time you have folded it 7 times it is 2^7*0.1 mm thick, that's 12.8mm, call it 1/2 an inch thick. And by then your piece of paper is rather small. If it started 8 1/2 x 11, it is now 11/8 x 17/8 inches, or about 1 1/2 inches by 2 inches. (ignoring the size of he folds)The next fold would make it 1 inch thick, and the outside of the fold would be a half circle 1/2 inch radius using pi/2 inches of paper, call it 1 1/2 inches. This isn't going to work.

Can you fold a piece of paper more than 7 times?
Yes. You can. If you fold it, turn 90 degrees and fold it again. I saw it on myth busters. They folded a paper the size of a football field 11 times. with the help from NASA. But with a regular 11x8 paper, i don't think it is possible.

What is the world record for most times to fold a paper?
a) It depends on paper size, and the quality of the paper.b) A piece of paper may be folded in half approximately 6-7 times consecutively, without unfolding, since the seventh fold and beyond would require bending hundreds (2^n) of layers .MythBusters managed to fold a football field sized piece of paper 11 times.

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!
Can you fold a dollar bill fifteen times?
Yes, but you can't fold it in half more than 7 times
Can you only fold paper 7 times?
yes if it is not in half, but if you you mean in half, then: A normal piece of paper, no. The width becomes to thick and the length too small. But here are some websites where they get a huge piece of paper so the length doesn't become too small, and they can do it 11 or 12 times: http://pomonahistorical.org/12times.htm http://blogs.howstuffworks.com/2009/07/23/why-cant-you-fold-a-piece-of-paper-more-than-seven-times/

How many times can you fold a paper?
Once or less than once with your hand melting it but in theory, you could do it quite a bit if you were just considering halving the amount of molecules until you get to one line of molecules.
