Asingle sheet of copier paper is approximately 1x 10^-4 meters thick. an office worker stacks 10 reams of paper in a corner. ten reams is 5 x10^3pieces of paper. how tall is this stack of paper (in meters)?

The answer to your question is: 0.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

a single sheet thick = 1 x 10⁻⁴ meters

# of reams = 10

Ten reams = 5 x 10³ pieces of paper

How tall is this stack of paper?

Rule of three

                     1 sheet of paper   1 x 10⁻⁴ meters

                  5 x 10³ sheets                  x

               x = ( 5 x 10³)(1 x 10⁻⁴) / 1

              x = 0.5 meters
