It takes 8 sheets of typing paper to make a stack 1 mm thick. How many sheets are there in a stack 10 cm thick?

Explanation

Multiply by 10 to find how many millimeters are in 10 centimeters.
\(10 \times 10=100 \mathrm{~mm}\)
Each millimeter (mm) of thickness contains 8 sheets of paper.
Multiply by 100 to find the total number of sheets of paper.
\(8 \times 100=800\)
