How many times can you fold a 1 mile by 1 mile sheet of graphene or borophene? Is it calculable?

Seven times.

The answer is seven.

Edit: You can use brittney gallivans equations for this task, assuming you know two things

how thick is the material?

And are you folding it along alternating axis (horizontal->vertical->horizontal, etx) or along the same axis over and over?

I found that too. Forgot how to math. Will remember. http://www.conversion-website.com/length/mile-to-Plank-length.html So you can have matching units.

You and have too much time on our hands this evening. (Doxxed my relative location)

Once you've folded it 7 times you have 128 layers (27).

That’s not enough layers. I want more.

I was surprised to lean, not long ago, that the 7 thing was a myth.

Kind of. The mythbusters episode required a special made sheet the size of a football field.

They did. I’m comfortable with large things.
