Hi friends!!  
I’m doing a brochure for my class but I need some math help.

I’m trying to do a gate fold… and it would be easy to just fold and take measurements… but it has to be perfect… so i have to take into consideration what the dimensions would be when I folded it… so there is no big bulge when you look at it from the side.

SO… [http://www.expertsinfinishing.com/G1\_Gate.pdf](http://www.expertsinfinishing.com/G1_Gate.pdf) if you look at that it shows you how to do the folding… i need someone to tell me what the dimensions and where the folds would be for my paper… which is **11x17**

any help anyone can give would be fantastic!!!  
thank you very much
