I have combined several pages into one pdf Binder. Although all the pages were built on 8.5 x 11 inch paper, inside the combined pdf they are different sizes on the scree. How can I achieve continuity between all the page sizes?

Print to Adobe PDF with "fit" (uncheck from "actual size") in print settings.

You can do this with Acrobat Pro.
Go to Tools> Print Production> Prefilght> FixUps (blue wrench icon)> Pages.
Select Scale pages to specified size
Go to the little fly-out menu and duplicate the prefilght, give it a new name.
Click on Edit, to change the desired final trim size and the method used to get to this size (scale, white border, etc.)
Click on Fix to apply the change.

Thanks for the response 🙂 The problem here is that it omits pages. So two 3 page documents should result in 6 pages total. This method results in 4 pages total. Am I wrong?

Why does you need a script for two 3 pages documents?

This was an example. We will be dealing with larger documents.

How skilled are you with Acrobat JavaScript? This not a terribly difficult task if you have some programming skills.
Loop over the pages in the shortest doc, inserting pages into the document with the largest number of pages. Then save to a new name.

I think I mentioned it in the thread linked to above (although that link is broken), but I've developed a (paid-for) tool that allows you to do just that, and it can handle both files with the same amount of pages (ie, the result file has a even number of pages) or when there's a different of one page between them (ie, the result file has an odd number of pages). You can find it here: http://try67.blogspot.com/2008/12/acrobat-combine-even-odd-pages.html

I scanned my notes and and combined all pages (scanned images) using right click contextr menu and made pdf.
I opened that pdf in acrobat pro later and replaced a page (organise pages > right click on page > insert page >selected page image)
Issue - Why this replaced page size is larger than other pages (see attachment) ?
I want to fix this. Please tell me how to do that.
[I checked the properties of pages below it and the pixel resolution is same 2040*2807]
[I made the pdf file of that single page and then inserted it but still it's larger]
Thanks & regards.

PDF pages don't have a pixel resolution, so I don't know what you checked. They have a size in "inches" or "mm", though they may not be that size on screen. Hover in the bottom left of the page and it will show you the size - and show you that these are wildly different. That will tell you what page size you need to make for the replacement page.

You can use the Preflight tool to scale all pages to the same size.

Where to go in preflight menu ?
Can you elaborate ?

I am making a .pdf in Acrobat DC from combined .jpg images of documents photographed with an iphone. How can I format the .pdf so that all the pages are letter size?

You could use an Acrobat preflight fixup to specify the page size (Tools> Print Production> Preflight> Fixups (blue wrench icon), type "scale" in the search field. You can also duplicate and re-name the existing preflight and then edit it to access more options.
Another option would be to create a multipage InDesign file, place the images into each page, cropping and re-sizing as needed, then export to a new PDF.

Is there a way to remove the resizing that happens in combine files to make them all the pages the same size. The 'print to pdf' option works but Acrobat Reader doesn't allow to print to pdf. Why is Acrobat so difficult and constantly changing files (sizes, rotation) when they're imported? Wasting so much time to get the files back to where they started

There is no resizing and no changes in rotation to the original file. What are you doing, and how are you doing that?
Acrobat surly allows to print to a virtual PDF printer, but it is not recommended to do so.
