how many pages
 
how many pages is 1500 words double spaced?

secbro20 12-07-2007 11:36 AM

1500 words?

Um...I'd say 5-7 pages...somewhere in between there. 750 words is about 3-4 pages so that should be about double the pages.

Destrus 12-07-2007 11:38 AM

;_;, it said not to exceed that but you know they want something near there. i don't think i can write that much about this though

secbro20 12-07-2007 11:41 AM

What do you have to write about?

Destrus 12-07-2007 11:47 AM

an ethical decision in this book

secbro20 12-07-2007 11:49 AM

1500 words on an ethical decision? That seems kinda high.

What book?

Destrus 12-07-2007 11:52 AM

the hacker diaries: confessions of teenage hackers. and this is only on 1 ethical decision that 1 person made, i chose Genocide

I've never heard of that book. You could talk about other genocides that have occurred. If you some how incorporated other ones into your paper, than you would get 1500 words pretty easily

Destrus 12-07-2007 11:54 AM

xD Genocide is actually somebody's hacker name in the book

Ok >.< then I totally read that wrong.

Destrus 12-07-2007 12:00 PM

not really, most people wouldn't think that somebody would use that as a name

Blaaaaaaaah 12-07-2007 12:16 PM

1500 words? I thought 1500 words are about 1.5 pages (default font) so double spaced would be 3 pages. o_O

Destrus 12-07-2007 12:18 PM

i'm at 133 words and about half a page...

1500 words fitting on 1.5 pages? How does that work?

Blaaaaaaaah 12-07-2007 12:20 PM

Are you guys talking about A4 size? D:

I always thought you fit about 800-1000 words on one page...

Destrus 12-07-2007 12:22 PM

12 point font, don't know about A4 size...

secbro20 12-07-2007 12:26 PM

yeah...never heard of 4A font. 12 point is what we use.

Destrus 12-07-2007 12:30 PM

blaaaah, while you're at it you should click on links in my sig

Blaaaaaaaah 12-07-2007 12:35 PM

secbro20 12-07-2007 12:35 PM

What word processing program do you use blaaah? We have Microsoft Word, where all fonts are in size increments by points, 12 point font being the standard.

Destrus 12-07-2007 12:35 PM

yay

Hessah 12-07-2007 12:35 PM

secbro20 12-07-2007 12:37 PM

If A4 is the font size, then why did Blaaaah say we could fit 800 words on one page? 1500 words in 3 pages?

BLAAAAAAH...STOP CONFUSING ME. >.<

I think blah meant she's always thought u can fit 800-1000 words on an A4 size paper, at Default font (which is Times New Roman [omg almost typed roumen] at 12 pt)

But i thought its about 300 words per page...... at 1.5 spacing, times new roman font size 12....

Destrus 12-07-2007 12:43 PM

So it will take you.....4-5 pages

Blaaaaaaaah 12-07-2007 12:44 PM

Wait wait, A4 is not a font size, it's a paper size. You know, those paper you usually use for every day things. They're about 21x30cm. I don't know the measurements in inches. D:

But you fit about 800-1000 words on one page, I think. So that would make it about 1.5-2 pages for a 1500 thing.

Edit: I'm talking about default line spacing. If you have double spacing then twice that amount? LOL

Oh, is it? Then I might have estimated it wrong then. D: Damn, I just backed up all my word documents and they're gone from the computer so I can't check. D:

Destrus 12-07-2007 12:50 PM

looking at what's left to write on i won't get anywhere near 1500 words. i'll also probably end up finishing this after my calc exam

Spirit 12-07-2007 03:03 PM

If it can wait until I get home, I have written many essays for college. I will look at one of the smaller ones, and see how many pages it is. I have deleted all of my essays from my work computer, and I left my flashdisk at home. :(

Yosei 12-07-2007 04:21 PM

Don't shorten words to extend it lol. Like... They're, say They are.

Patches 12-07-2007 04:51 PM

In case any of you are still confused by the whole A4 thing. Those of us in the US use what we call letter size paper (8.5x11) as a standard. The rest of the world (at least most of it) uses A4 as a standard paper size. It is about 8x11.5 in inches. They use different paper because they all use metric and we in the dark ages still don't. Now that my Brain hurts from trying to act all smart and stuff, I am going to run away.

Lmao.
Seriously though. My computer was set up to default to A4 paper and one day my boss needed to print something from my computer and she went in to change the preferences and did not know what A4 was. I was :eek:, and you supervise me?
