"Take an A4 sheet of paper and fold it into 16 equal rectangles." Is this statement an algorithm? Explain your answer.
Fold a sheet into 16 equal rectangles. Describe in steps to fold your paper into the 16 rectangles, and write it down as an algorithm. Is there any way to fold the paper and complete the task?
The more you have to do to get your 16 rectangles, the longer the task will take. Try to see how many folds you can make to fold your paper, and write down the algorithm
An algorithm should always be efficient, so it is important that it require as few steps as possible. What is the minimum number of folds to fold 16 equal rectangles?
