Question 18. Nella folds a paper square in half, and then in half again, as shown. Next, she cuts pieces out of the folded paper. After unfolding, she sees a paper snowflake.  How did she cut the folded piece of paper? Let's begin by looking at the end result. We know that it was folded in half.  Along this line here, we can fold the paper again, and it will look like so. We know it was then folded again in half, like so, so we will do that and simulate that.  We are left with a shape that looks like this, which gives us our solution, which will be B.

Video Summary

Nella folds a paper square in half twice before cutting pieces out to create a snowflake when unfolded. By examining the final snowflake and reversing the folding process, it is determined that the correct folding and cutting method corresponds with option B.
