IF it were possible to fold a piece of paper 50 times it would be more than 1 million miles thick--work it out

It can't be done. Before this is done the fibers will give way. The most you can fold a regular piece of coy paper or any paper of any size is eight times. (Probably less). If you doubt me, just try it yourself.

Zero, because you can fold only a paper of thickness zero to 50 times and zero multiplied by two to the power zero is zero.
