In a stack, there are 5 books each of thickness 20 mm and 5 paper sheets each of thickness 0.016 mm. What is the total thickness of the stack?

Solution
Thickness of each book = 20 mm
Hence, thickness of 5 books = (5 × 20) mm = 100 mm
Thickness of each paper sheet = 0.016 mm
Hence, thickness of 5 paper sheets = (5 × 0.016) mm = 0.080 mm
Total thickness of the stack = Thickness of 5 books + Thickness of 5 paper sheets
= (100 + 0.080) mm
= 100.08 mm
= 1.0008 × 102 mm
