Chapter 9.4, Problem 61SR

To determine

To Find: More piece of paper when cut and stacked $8$ times than $5$ times.

Answer to Problem 61SR

There will $2^3$ times more piece of paper.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The given piece of paper when cut and stacked $8$ times than $5$ times.

Formula:

As mentioned in the problem if resulting piece of paper is $c$ than cut is $2^c$ .

Calculation:

Consider the statement that given piece of paper when cut and stacked $8$ times than $5$ times.

Recall that if resulting piece of paper is $c$ than cut is $2^c$ .

Therefore if resulting sheet of paper is $8$ than cut is $2^8=256$ and if the resulting sheet of paper is $5$ than cut is $2^5=32$ .

Therefore $\frac{2^8}{2^5}=2^3$ times is the sheet of paper.
