Question 1 Report

The thickness of an 800 pages of book is 18mm. Calculate the thickness of one leaf of the book giving your answer in meters and in standard form
Answer Details
Thickness of an 800 pages book = 18mm to meter
18 x 103m = 1.8 x 10-2m
One leaf =  1.8 × 10 − 2 800
=  1.8 × 10 − 2 8 × 10 2
=  − 1.8 8  x 10-4
= 0.225 x 10-4
= 2.25 x 10-5m
