A sheet of paper is 0.1 mm thick. Fold it in half 7 times. Is the folded stack thicker or thinner than 1 cm?

Question 04 · Logic · Medium · Put in order
Four people live on floors 1–4, one per floor. Pia lives above Quinn. Rex lives directly below Sam. Quinn is not on floor 1. Order them from the bottom floor up.
Correct order
Rex
Sam
Quinn
Pia
Quinn can't be on floor 1, and Pia must be above Quinn. If Quinn were on 2, the floors left for Rex and Sam would never be next to each other. So Quinn is on 3, Pia on 4, and Rex and Sam take 1 and 2.
