Abstract
- The article looks at how U.S. high school student Britney Gallivan developed a mathematics equation in January 2002. Gallivan was offered extra credit in her math class if she could fold anything in half 12 times, Britney managed the task with a piece of gold foil. However, the teacher was not satisfied thus, changed the challenge to folding paper in half. Gallivan took on the challenge and was armed with over 1 km of toilet paper, which she spent seven hours folding. After the 12th fold she made history.
