Question 1

A square piece of paper is folded vertically (right side over left). A hole is punched through all layers at the marked position. Which pattern shows the holes when the paper is unfolded? Folded state (showing the punch position): ⬤ at position (row 1, col 1)
The paper was folded vertically. When folded, the hole punches through all layers. When unfolded, the hole appears mirrored across the fold line. The resulting pattern has 1 hole(s).

Question 2

A square piece of paper is folded vertically (left side over right). A hole is punched through all layers at the marked position. Which pattern shows the holes when the paper is unfolded? Folded state (showing the punch position): ⬤ at position (row 2, col 2)
The paper was folded vertically. When folded, the hole punches through all layers. When unfolded, the hole appears mirrored across the fold line. The resulting pattern has 0 hole(s).

Question 3

A 8×8 paper is horizontal fold, then horizontal fold, then vertical fold. A single hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes after complete unfolding?
With 3 folds, the hole punches through 8 layers. When unfolded, you get 0 holes in a complex symmetrical pattern determined by the fold sequence.

Question 4

A 5×5 paper is folded at column 1 (left side over), then folded at row 3 (top over). A hole is punched through all layers. When unfolded, which pattern shows the resulting holes?
With offset folds, the hole positions are mirrored asymmetrically. The hole at position (1,2) on the folded paper creates multiple mirrored copies when unfolded.

Question 5

A 8×8 paper is vertical fold, then horizontal fold, then horizontal fold. A single hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes after complete unfolding?
With 3 folds, the hole punches through 8 layers. When unfolded, you get 0 holes in a complex symmetrical pattern determined by the fold sequence.

Question 6

A 8×8 paper is horizontal fold, then vertical fold, then vertical fold. A single hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes after complete unfolding?
With 3 folds, the hole punches through 8 layers. When unfolded, you get 0 holes in a complex symmetrical pattern determined by the fold sequence.

Question 7

A square paper is folded horizontally (bottom over top), then folded vertically (right over left). A hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes when fully unfolded?
With two folds, the hole punches through 4 layers. When unfolded, each hole is mirrored across each fold line, creating 4 holes in a symmetrical pattern.

Question 8

A square paper is folded horizontally (bottom over top), then folded vertically (right over left). A hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes when fully unfolded?
With two folds, the hole punches through 4 layers. When unfolded, each hole is mirrored across each fold line, creating 1 holes in a symmetrical pattern.

Question 9

A square paper is folded vertically (right over left), then folded horizontally (bottom over top). A hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes when fully unfolded?
With two folds, the hole punches through 4 layers. When unfolded, each hole is mirrored across each fold line, creating 1 holes in a symmetrical pattern.

Question 10

A square piece of paper is folded horizontally (top half down). A hole is punched through all layers at the marked position. Which pattern shows the holes when the paper is unfolded? Folded state (showing the punch position): ⬤ at position (row 1, col 2)
The paper was folded horizontally. When folded, the hole punches through all layers. When unfolded, the hole appears mirrored across the fold line. The resulting pattern has 0 hole(s).

Question 11

A square piece of paper is folded horizontally (bottom half up). A hole is punched through all layers at the marked position. Which pattern shows the holes when the paper is unfolded? Folded state (showing the punch position): ⬤ at position (row 1, col 1)
The paper was folded horizontally. When folded, the hole punches through all layers. When unfolded, the hole appears mirrored across the fold line. The resulting pattern has 1 hole(s).

Question 12

A 8×8 paper is horizontal fold, then horizontal fold, then vertical fold. A single hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes after complete unfolding?
With 3 folds, the hole punches through 8 layers. When unfolded, you get 0 holes in a complex symmetrical pattern determined by the fold sequence.

Question 13

A square piece of paper is folded horizontally (top half down). A hole is punched through all layers at the marked position. Which pattern shows the holes when the paper is unfolded? Folded state (showing the punch position): ⬤ at position (row 2, col 3)
The paper was folded horizontally. When folded, the hole punches through all layers. When unfolded, the hole appears mirrored across the fold line. The resulting pattern has 0 hole(s).

Question 14

A square paper is folded horizontally (bottom over top), then folded vertically (right over left). A hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes when fully unfolded?
With two folds, the hole punches through 4 layers. When unfolded, each hole is mirrored across each fold line, creating 1 holes in a symmetrical pattern.

Question 15

A square paper is folded vertically (left over right), then folded horizontally (top over bottom). A hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes when fully unfolded?
With two folds, the hole punches through 4 layers. When unfolded, each hole is mirrored across each fold line, creating 4 holes in a symmetrical pattern.

Question 16

A square piece of paper is folded horizontally (top half down). A hole is punched through all layers at the marked position. Which pattern shows the holes when the paper is unfolded? Folded state (showing the punch position): ⬤ at position (row 1, col 1)
The paper was folded horizontally. When folded, the hole punches through all layers. When unfolded, the hole appears mirrored across the fold line. The resulting pattern has 0 hole(s).

Question 17

A square paper is folded vertically (left over right), then folded horizontally (top over bottom). A hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes when fully unfolded?
With two folds, the hole punches through 4 layers. When unfolded, each hole is mirrored across each fold line, creating 4 holes in a symmetrical pattern.

Question 18

A 5×5 paper is folded at column 2 (left side over). A hole is punched through all layers. When unfolded, which pattern shows the resulting holes?
With offset folds, the hole positions are mirrored asymmetrically. The hole at position (3,2) on the folded paper creates multiple mirrored copies when unfolded.

Question 19

A 8×8 paper is vertical fold, then vertical fold, then vertical fold. A single hole is punched through all layers. Which pattern shows the holes after complete unfolding?
With 3 folds, the hole punches through 8 layers. When unfolded, you get 0 holes in a complex symmetrical pattern determined by the fold sequence.

Question 20

A square piece of paper is folded vertically (left side over right). A hole is punched through all layers at the marked position. Which pattern shows the holes when the paper is unfolded? Folded state (showing the punch position): ⬤ at position (row 1, col 2)
The paper was folded vertically. When folded, the hole punches through all layers. When unfolded, the hole appears mirrored across the fold line. The resulting pattern has 0 hole(s).
