The correct answer is

This question tests your ability to visualize spatial reasoning and understand how a folded piece of paper unfolds after being cut. Let's trace the steps shown in the image.

The image shows a rectangular piece of paper folded in half vertically, then in half horizontally. A cut is then made in the shape of an inverted 'L' shape. Now let's reverse this process.

Imagine unfolding the paper step-by-step. First, you'd unfold the horizontal fold. This means the 'L' cut will be mirrored horizontally, creating two 'L' shapes. The next step is to unfold the vertical fold. This will mirror the resulting shape again vertically, doubling the number of 'L' shapes.

Therefore, the unfolded paper will have four 'L' shapes arranged in a 2x2 grid. By examining the options, only one corresponds to this unfolded form.

The correct option is:

This figure accurately represents the four 'L' shapes resulting from the two-fold process and the central cut, showing the correct pattern of mirrored cuts and demonstrates understanding of paper folding and spatial reasoning.
