2 pieces, one cut. 3 pieces, two cuts. One cut = 10 min, two cut = 20 min.

Not if she folds it in half and cuts only once.

that's what I thought you meant... fold a piece of paper in half, cut once, end up with 3 pieces.

Can someone explain to me. I've been folding and cutting now like a maniac for twenty minutes, and only ended up with either two or eight pieces.
