Hint
We'll assume that we can actually fold it this many times.
Answer
Very thick indeed! The paper doubles in thickness with each fold. If we could fold it 50 times, it would be around 70 million miles thick!
1 fold would be 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.1 x 2 ^ 1 = 0.2 mm
2 folds would be 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.1 x 2 ^ 2 = 0.4 mm

10 folds would be 0.1 x 2 ^ 10 = 102.4 mm

50 folds would be 0.1 x 2 ^ 50 = 112,589,990,684,262.4 mm = 112,589,990.7 km (around 70 million miles).
