Fun question

imqwerty (imqwerty):

U got a paper and u fold it half and then u open it and when u open it u will see a valley type of thing formed(V). If u fold the paper half twice along the same length and then open it u'll see 2valleys(V) and 1hill(^) formed. Now the question is-how many valleys will be formed if u fold the paper half 9 times.

You fold it 9 times, but do you always switch directions when folding?

imqwerty (imqwerty):

No u can't switch directions while folding. U have to fold along the same directions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you fold along the same direction, then your second fold should give you 3 valleys.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your valleys will be parallel

imqwerty (imqwerty):

Wait I am sending a pic of valleys nd hills formed after folding the paper twice

myininaya (myininaya):

for 5 folds I get: 8 valleys 8 hills I think maybe we can find a pattern like you know 2,3,4 folds...

OpenStudy (dan815):

whats a valley, whats a hill, im confused

myininaya (myininaya):

the paper touches the desk=valley the paper doesn't touch the desk=hill

imqwerty (imqwerty):

Exactly

OpenStudy (dan815):
