You can put this solution on YOUR website! One ream contains 500 sheets of paper and is about 5.2 cm thick. Considering this information, find the volume of one sheet of letter-size paper in cubic centimeters. The demensionsof a sheet of letter size paper are approximately 21.5 cm by 27.9 cm.
------------
The thickness of a sheet is 5.2/500 cm = 0.0104 cm
Vol = 0.0104*21.5*27.9
V = 6.23844 cc
