Well, just speculation, but I believe the universe has 26 dimensions. Ten or eleven was the initial experiment in string theory, but they later found that it wasn't enough. There were too many different equations making the same things, because there were deeper underlying patterns. They had to add even more dimensions to unify those into one. I'm not caught up on the recent stuff.
As for the piece of paper, I guess it could be really close to 2, but just a little bit more because of the thickness. Even if the sheet was one atom thick, it would still be 3D. I guess the limit for a 3D sheet is 2.0...1, where there would be infinite 0's in ...
