the thickness of a brand of paper is about 0.000 000 05 cm.How many pieces of paper are there in a 30 cm stack?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "0.000 000 05 cm = 5.0*10^-8 cm thick
\n" ); document.write( "# = 30 cm/5*10^-8 cm
\n" ); document.write( "= 6*10^8 sheets
\n" ); document.write( "or 600,000,000 sheets
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "That's some really thin paper. A sheet is typically 0.003\" - 0.004\", or ~0.008 cm. A 30 cm stack would be 3,750 sheets.\r
