If by sides you refer to the number of paper slices you can hold then the formula is this:

assuming that when the paper has not been folded, the number of times folded is equal zero then the equation is:

2x, where x is the number of times folded.

for example if the paper has been folded four times the number of sides is:

24 = 16
