Theoretically it is infinite, but in practice, folding 7 times in half is already the maximum, and I have tried, even if it is very thin paper, it can be folded in half up to 7 times!!
-
Seven times! If the paper could be folded in half seven times, it would be so thick that it would be staggering compared to itself, a value that is theoretically achievable but not possible in reality.
-
8 times it seems, no matter how big the paper.
-
At present, it is up to 13, and 7 and 11 were refreshed by American high school students in 2012.
You can look at what has been written in the past few years.
-
I remember our math teacher saying it 9 times! Absolutely!
-
As long as the paper is big enough, it can be infinite.
-
The Guinness Book of Records is 7 times, but there have been 8-9 times, no application, no more than 9 times.

In 2011, teachers and students at St. Mark's High School in Texas folded a 10,000-foot-long (nearly 4-kilometer) piece of toilet paper in half 13 times to complete the experiment.

There will be no more than fifteen times I saw it on a program on Sichuan Satellite TV two years ago.
-
An experiment in the United States, using rollers and forklifts, can already be folded in half 11 times.
-
I folded it 9 times with a piece of toilet paper.

A sheet of paper can be folded in half up to 13 times.
In 2011, teachers and students at St. Mark's High School in Texas folded a 10,000-foot-long (nearly 4-kilometer) piece of toilet paper in half 13 times, and in order to complete the experiment, they placed the toilet paper in a corridor of more than 200 meters at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and folded it collectively for more than four hours. After folding it in half 13 times, the toilet paper reached 8,192 layers.
Depending on the thickness and width of the paper, the thickness of the paper will exceed the width after a certain number of folds. After that, it is no longer possible to fold anymore, and the limit is reached.
Each half fold doubles the thickness of the paper, so the thickness of a sheet of paper with a thickness of t is 2nt when folded n times. At the same time, the width is halved every two folds, so that after n folds, the width is reduced from the original w to (1 2) (n 2) w. When the total thickness of the paper is equal to its width, it can no longer be folded.
12 times. Theoretically, if the thickness of the paper is zero, it can be folded in half countless times, however, due to the existence of the actual thickness of the paper, this theory does not exist, because the width of the folded paper cannot be less than or equal to the thickness of the paper, that is to say, the width of the paper after folding should be greater than 1mm for a piece of paper with a thickness of 1mm. >>>More
One day, I was in a math class and was in a daze as usual. When he was bored, he reached out and picked up the newspaper on the table and began to fold the plane. But he was soon discovered by the teacher. >>>More
No, in fact it is almost impossible to fold a piece of paper in half 7 times (you can try), because most of the paper folded in half after 7 folds is already larger than the original area of the paper. In fact, it is related to the thickness of the paper, if the paper is infinitely thin (the thickness tends to be 0), then the thickness is still 0 if you fold it 100 times. Here's a bibliography for you: >>>More
People who work as clerks are too hard, dealing with all kinds of paper every day, and there are always injuries on their hands with a lot of small cuts, and then it doesn't hurt too much and it's not very serious for a few days, but it's too disturbing. The legendary mosquito does not bite people, but responds to people. >>>More
