Question

A piece of paper is folded and punched as shown below in the question figures. From the given option figures, indicate how it will appear when opened?

The correct answer is

To solve this problem, we need to predict how the paper will look when unfolded after being folded and punched as shown in the question figure.

**Step-by-Step Explanation:**

  1. First, observe the pattern of folding:
    • The paper is initially folded in half vertically, and then again horizontally.
  2. Next, note the position of the holes:
    • The punches are made on the folded paper as shown in the extreme right image of the sequence.
  3. When the paper is unfolded, the holes will mirror themselves based on the fold lines:
    • Each punch will be reflected across the fold lines, creating a symmetrical pattern on all quadrants of the unfolded paper.

Based on these reflections, analyze the options:

  1. Select the option where the punched pattern symmetrically matches the unfolded view of the paper.

This image shows the correct unfolded paper pattern, as the holes are accurately mirrored across the fold lines.
