Calculate weight of fabric

Learn Apparel Merchandising, Learn Fashion design.
Calculate weight of fabric from the given data.
Grammage                                300 GSM
Width of fabric               35 inches (in tubular form)
Length of fabric              20 meters

First we will calculate area of the fabric

Area of fabric = Fabric length * fabric width

                          = 20 * 35*2 (since fabric is in tubular)
                        39.37 (one meter is equal to 39.37 inches)

                        = 35.6 meter square

Weight of one meter square is     = 300 (GSM)
And weight of 35.6 meter square = 300*35.6
 Ans.                       = 10680 grams or 10.680 Kgs
