The problem is that after the seventh fold you're dealing with a wad of paper that's a) small and b) thick ... 256 sheets thick, which means making that 8th fold is probably going to require a hydraulic press.

What is the world record for most times to fold a paper?

How many times can an A4 size piece of paper be folded in half?
Somewhere in the vicinity of 10 or 11, depending on how large and (more importantly) how thin the paper is. A lot of people claim seven. The TV show Mythbusters took a very large sheet of paper and folded it ten times to prove that was not correct. Note that the tenth fold is essentially trying to fold a ream... those thick packages you buy copier paper in at the office supply store.

How many grams does one sheet of construction paper weigh?
Paper in the United States is calculated as 500 sheets of bond paper with a size of 17" by 22" (ledger-size) as having a weight of 20 pounds. The manufacturer cuts a ledger-sheet into four 8 ½" by 11" (letter-size) sheets, so a 500 letter-size sheet ream of 20-pound bond paper weighs 5 pounds. In the real world (outside the USA where they use archaic units) A sheet of A4 paper is 1/16 of a square metre, or 210 × 297 mm. The normal standard for printer paper is 80 gsm (grams per square metre). Therefore a standard A4 sheet weighs 80/16 = 5 grams.

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.

Leo folded a piece of paper in half a certain amount of times When unfolded the paper was divided into three sections How many times did Leo fold the paper?
The answer is 3...he folded it 3 times. Here is how to solve. One fold gives you two sections...1x2=2; each time you fold it doubles the amount of sections, so take your first answer...2...and multiply that by 2. 2x2=4. keep multiplying your answer by 2 until you get to the desired number of sections. 4x2=8.
If you fold a piece of paper 50 times how many layers will there be?
Each time you fold paper, the number of layers is doubled.0 folds = 1 layer (original sheet) = 201 fold = 2 layers = 212 folds = 4 layers = 223 folds = 8 layers. = 23...etc, all the way to 50 folds. In other words, the number of layers increases exponentially.Following the pattern, If you could fold paper 50 times, the number of layers would equal:250 or 1,125,899,906,842,624 layers.
