Hi All,
I'm a graphic designer (not a mathematician) and I'm trying to create a little calculator that will give me the column and gutter widths of a page, based on the following variables:
-Page width
-# of Columns desired
-Gutter width is x% of Column width (eg. all gutters would be 25% the width of the columns, or 50%, etc. etc.)
I'm just so poor at math and Excel formulas that I'm not able to figure it out consistently. Could anyone take a stab at it? Thank you so much in advance!!
