Hey guys,

I am very confused by several questions on achiever's hole punching section that are just making absolutely no sense to me right now (there explanations don't help when you can't figure out what the fold is). For majority of the hole punch I do fine using the line of symmetry method, but there have been about 10 questions in achiever's 1-5 that have these very odd folds that I can not figure out.

The fold's I am talking about are the ones where it shows a shape, lets for examples sake say a rectangle that takes up the bottom 2/3 of the right side of the "box" (really the boundaries for the paper). In this rectangle is a horizontal line dissecting the rectangle into two squares. The rectangle (or two squares) then has a hole punched in the bottom right corner. When going to the left and looking at the previous fold it shows the exact same shape (rectangle) in the exact same position only now it no longer has the horizontal line in the middle dividing it. Does anyone have any idea how to make this fold/how to solve these types of problems???

Help would be greatly appreciated. I looked through other threads and it seems no one else is having this problem. If needed I will try and post a picture later if the description of the fold is not clear enough. Thanks guys!
 
Hey i just came upon the same question and it had me scratching my head as well but here go my two cents

I think what happens is that once you do the first fold, to make the rectange, you now have two layers of paper. The second fold is actually them folding the top layer of paper, and not the bottom.

That's what i took from it, but may just as well be wrong.
