Fit Through Paper

Can you make a hole in a paper big enough to fit through it?

Here is how it can be done.

You will need an 8½ by 11 inches paper, a pen and a ruler. 

Fold the paper in half, so the shorter edges meet.

Draw lines as shown on the picture.  Does not have to be any specific thickness.  Just make sure that you do not cut the lines all the way.  Leave more or less an inch at each end.  

Cut along the lines.

Cut the folded side as shown on the picture.  Make sure you do not cut close to the edge.

Open the paper.

 See if you fit through it.

Roman Numerals Puzzles

A boy in Ancient Rome had a quiz.  He was so absent minded that he made a mistake in each of his equations.

When the teacher checked the quiz, he thought the boy was teasing him, since all of the equations could be corrected by moving just one of elements (I, V, X, L,C, D, M, ---).  See if you can correct the equations.  Forgot how to convert Roman Numerals?  Click here.
