When George Bush became president the federal deficit debt was how many times what it had been when Ronald Reagan took office?
First of all, the federal budget deficit and the national debt are two different things. The debt is the total of borrowed money owed by the federal government, and the budget deficit is the amount that is added to the debt each year due to the lack of a balanced budget.During the eight years of Ronald Reagan's presidency, the national debt rose by 1.78 trillion dollars due to eight budgets with deficits ranging from 100 billion dollars to 280 billion dollars being signed into law. That changed the size of the national debt from 960 billion dollars to 2.74 trillion dollars, an increase of 185.4%.

Did any president increased the deficit more than Reagan?
Obama has increased the national debt more than any president ever by quite a bit. That pretty much implies increasing the "deficit" more than any president ever, also.Reagan may have been worse on a percentage basis; if I recall properly, the national debt approximately doubled during his tenure, and Obama has "only" increased it by about 1.5x. Of course, he's done it in only one term; if he get elected again, he's well on track to beat Reagan by the time he's done, and in terms of the actual dollar amount, he's already far ahead of Reagan.

Was national debt ever been fully paid off?
Yes, several times. Most recently, President Clinton was able to balance the budget in his administration, despite having inherited a deficit from President George H.W. Bush. It was not several times and Clinton didn't do it. In fact the national debt was $5,727,776,738,304.64 when Clinton left office. Clinton left office with about a $1.5 trillion increase to the national debt. The only time the national debt has been paid off was in 1835 under President Andrew Jackson.
How did bush inherit a 5.8 trillion dollar debt if Clinton left office debt free?
Don't confuse the national debt with the national deficit. The national debt is the accumulated debt carried from year to year. The deficit is the difference between tax revenue and government expenditure in a given year. Clinton was able to get expenditures below revenus while he was in office (known as a budget surplus), but he was not able to eliminate the debt. Clinton inherited a massive debt from GHW Bush (which he inherited from Reagan), and passed an only slightly smaller debt to GW Bush.
