if you are doing this for a science fair, i did mine this week one that project. you get a syringe, and a cookie sheet, put your amount of water onto the sheet put the paper towel in it let it soak, pick it up, let it drip, then pour the leftover amount of water into a bowl, suck it back up with another syringe. this is a very simple project.

What can be used to measure the thickness of a piece of paper?
Take about 20 pieces of similar paper, align them together and measure their total thickness. After that, divide that thickness by 20 to get the thickness of one. Or measure just one sheet, using one of the precision instruments designed for measuring thicknesses very accurately: the micrometer or the caliper (the latter of the vernier or more commonly now, digital, type).
How do you divide the thickness of a papet?
To divide the thickness of a paper evenly, you can use a ruler or calipers to measure the total thickness. Then, use a knife or razor blade to carefully cut the paper into equal parts, ensuring each section has the desired thickness. A paper cutter or guillotine can also be used for more accuracy and precision.

How could you find the thickness of page in a book?

Is the paper towel that absorbs the most water the same as the paper towel brand that absorbs the most oil?
It would be a trivial experiment, if you're really interested. I'm not, so I've never done it, but I would not expect them to be the same.
