If you folded a piece a paper 50 times how tall would it be?
A normal piece of paper is about 0.0038 inches thick. So, if the paper were to be folded 50 times, it would become, essentially, 1,125,899,906,842,624 pieces of paper stacked upon one another. Therefore, you would multiply the above number by 0.0038 and that would be 4278419646001.97 inches or 67,525,562.594 miles of paper. So, a normal 8 1/2 by 11 piece of paper folded 50 times would be 67,525,562.594 miles, which is 141 times the distance the Moon is to the Earth.
What is the maxium times you can fold a piece of paper?
The answer to that question was first understood and documented and proved by a Britney Gallivan. She first had to make a definition of what a fold was (bending paper over is not true folding) Then went on to find out why paper had a limit. The answer is each time paper is folded there is less paper left to contribute to the next folding. A lot of complex math was reduced to the final formulas on her web site. She published the work to have it critiques by college professors and skeptics who agreed with her results. The paper is increased in thickness by double each time it is folded in half.Look the diagrams carefully at her site and you will see how the edges of folded paper are not actually contributing to the actual stacked folding. The number of times a piece of paper, or other non compressible material, is not 7 but only limited by the dimensions of the paper. She folded paper and gold in half twelve times. She was a consultant to the Mythbusters TV program that folded 17 taped sheets of paper some 11 times.
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.

Can paper be folded in half more than 7 times?
In theory, paper can be folded in half more than 7 times, but it becomes increasingly difficult as the number of folds increases. The thickness of the paper and its size are limiting factors that make it practically impossible to fold a standard piece of paper more than 7-8 times.

What is the formula to determine how many sides when a piece of paper is folded in half repeatedly?
If by sides you refer to the number of paper slices you can hold then the formula is this: assuming that when the paper has not been folded, the number of times folded is equal zero then the equation is: 2x, where x is the number of times folded. for example if the paper has been folded four times the number of sides is: 24 = 16
How many times can an a4 piece of paper be folded until it ends up on a rectangle?
An A4 piece of paper can typically be folded in half about 7 to 8 times before it becomes too thick to fold further. Each fold doubles the thickness, and after a certain point, the physical limitations of the paper's size and thickness prevent additional folds. Ultimately, it will still maintain a rectangular shape, but the dimensions will change with each fold.
