What way does the ticket system work for the paris metro?

I'm going tmro and know to buy a book of 10 tickets called a Carnet, but do you just use 1 ticket each time you go down to get on a train or do longer journeys take more than 1 ticket, how do I know what to do?
Thanks for any helpful advice

The tickets in a carnet are good for one one-way trip, which means as long as you're underground and you don't exit a metro station, you can go wherever you want, ie. transfer as many times as you wish on the same ticket. As soon as you go through the turnstile to exit the metro station and go back out onto the street, that ticket is finished. So a round trip, from your hotel to the Louvre and back, for instance, will take two tickets.

If you stay within the city and on the métro, you use 1 ticket per trip, regardless of how many trains you use. However, once you leave the métro station, your ticket is finished. The limit of ticket validity is usually marked with one-way doors or turnstiles.

On the other hand, the tickets DO permit transfers between bus/bus and bus/tram within a period of 90 minutes.

Although Paris public transportation has seven zones, the vast majority of the métro is in zones 1 and 2, which are covered by the standard 'carnet' (11.10euro for 10 tickets). While traveling inside Paris, you aren't likely to leave these zones.

Going outside of the zone requires a special ticket with a different fare, not more tickets. For example, the airports are in zone 5, so taking the RER to the airport from the city requires a ticket that costs 8.2euro. You can find zone information on the Paris métro map.
