Paper quality is expressed as weight per area. Office standard A4 is 80 grams per square metre.
A sheet of A0 paper has an area of 1 m2, A1 is half the size of A0, A2 half A1, A3 half A2, and A4 half of A3; so there are 16 sheets of A4 to the square metre.
Therefore the weight of one sheet of A4 is 80 divided by 16, which is 5 grams.
The number of sheets needed to make one kilogram is 1000 divided by 5, which is 200 sheets.
One tonne is 1000 kilograms so one tonne of A4 would need 200 000 sheets.
A ream of paper is 500 sheets, so 200 000 sheets is 400 reams.
