Answer :
height
= [tex]5 × 10^(-1)m[/tex]
height = 0.5 meters
therefore, the stack of paper will be 0.5 meters high.
A single sheet of copier paper is approximately.
[tex]1 × 10^(-4)[/tex]meters thick.
Ten reams of paper are stacked in a corner by an office worker.
Ten reams are equivalent to
[tex]5 × 10^(3)[/tex]
pieces of paper.
Solution:
Thickness of a single sheet of copier paper
= 1 × 10^(-4) meters
Number of sheets of paper in ten reams
=[tex]5 × 10^(3)[/tex]
pieces Total[tex]= 1 × 10^(-4)[/tex] height of the stack of paper in meters is obtained by multiplying the thickness of a single sheet of paper by the total number of pieces of paper. Therefore, Height = number of pieces of paper × thickness of each piece height
= [tex]5 × 10^(3) × 1 × 10^(-4)[/tex]
height
= [tex]5 × 10^(-1)m[/tex]
height = 0.5 meters
therefore, the stack of paper will be 0.5 meters high.
