If I fold a towel in half, and then fold it in half again and then once more - have I added, subtracted, multiplied or divided the towel's dimensions?

That depends. Did you fold the towel perfectly? Do we include the possible air space in between the folds? Which ways did you fold it?

You have stretched the towel so its longer. In fact continuing to fold it would cause rupture due to stretching.

You subtract by half and add half to the layer.
each two folds you multiply by two for number of internal faces but divide by two per whole.
