A4 for origami?

The day before yesterday, I sat down to make an origami at my office desk. Now, Origami can be a bit daunting, so I had chosen a simple one to begin with. However, the first step itself proved to be a hurdle.



Hmm. Now the only paper easily accessible in our office is A4 size (yes, I used discarded sheets of paper). Which brings me to my question - how do you get an equilateral triangle from an A4 sheet? Using the minimum number of folds too, or else the paper will be too crumpled for use.

If you have a solution, you may post it as a comment :)
