How should the laundry bag be tied on the bed?

• A. Tight knot at the bottom
• B. Simple bow at the side
• C. Any way that results in the crossing of the rope at the top of the laundry bag
• D. Tie it with the rope on the left

Answer: (C)

The key idea is to secure the bag by cinching it at the top. When the rope crosses over the top of the bag, the tension pulls the opening closed and anchors the bag in place, creating a stable hold that resists slipping or opening as you move or adjust the bed. This top-crossing setup distributes the force more effectively and keeps the bag from sliding off or spilling. Tying at the bottom, or placing a simple bow on the side, or tying only on the left doesn’t create that top-level cinch and anchor, so they’re less secure. The crossover at the top provides the strongest, most reliable containment.
