To determine the number of sheets of paper in a stack that is 2.25 inches high, we need to divide the total height of the stack by the thickness of a single sheet.
First, let's convert the thickness of a single sheet from inches to thousandths of an inch. Since there are 1,000 thousandths of an inch in an inch, we can multiply the thickness by 1,000 to convert it:
0.0075 inch * 1,000 = 7.5 thousandths of an inch
Now, we can divide the total height of the stack by the thickness of a single sheet to find the number of sheets:
2.25 inches / 7.5 thousandths of an inch = 300 sheets
Therefore, there will be 300 sheets of paper in a stack that is 2.25 inches high.
