A sheet of paper is about 0.0970 mm thick. What is the volume (in cubic inches) of a standard 8.50 in.×11.0 in. Sheet of paper?

Answered by maham237 @



Solution :

Given the thickness of a sheet = 0.0970 mm

and Length and breadth of the sheet = 8.50 in.×11.0 in.

To calculate the Volume of the sheet of paper in cubic inches , first we need to convert the unit of thickness of the paper , that is from mm to inches.

As we know , 1 inch = 25.4 mm \Rightarrow 1 mm =\frac{1}{25.4} \:inch
so, 0.0970 mm = \frac{1}{25.4}\times 0.0970 = 0.0038 inch

Volume of sheet = 8.50\:in.\times 11.0\:in.\times 0.0038\:in.=0.3553\: cubic\: in.

Hence, Volume of the sheet of paper = 0.3553 cubic inches.
