Take a paper of standard size. Measure its mass in gram using an electronic balance. Find its dimensions (length and breadth) in meter. Find the area in meter2. Get the gsm by dividing the mass in gram by area in meter2. Example: If the mass of a 42cmx33.5cm paper is 8.15gram then its gsm is 58 . (8.15/.42/.335 = 58) You will get more accurate results by using multiple sheets of paper. I usually use at least 10 sheets of paper, then you can either find the total area of the 10 sheets (multiply area of 1 sheet by 10), or divide the mass that you measured by 10, before doing the gsm calculation.
8 inches x 8 inches = 64 square inches = the area of the piece of paper. Length and width are used to find the area of an object, not the volume (cubic inches). To find the volume of the piece of paper you need to know the depth of the sheet of paper. You might be able to find this out with a Google search.
Assuming the standard weight of a sheet of paper is 80 gsm, you would need to calculate the area of each sheet (70 cm x 100 cm) and convert the weight to kilograms (80 g = 0.08 kg). Then, you can calculate the weight of one sheet using the formula weight = area x weight per unit area. Finally, divide the total weight of paper you have by the weight of one sheet to find out how many sheets you have.
To find the thickness of a single sheet of paper, divide the total thickness by the number of sheets: 1cm / 100 sheets = 0.01 cm per sheet.
to find the surface area you have to first find the area of each part then add the areas together.
Square metres. Square centimetres for small objects like a sheet of paper, square kilometres for a town or lake.
54sq.in. of paper
It depends on the surface area of what!
I might want to find the surface area of a box if I were trying to wrap it as a birthday present, that way I'd know how much wrapping paper I would need.
The formula to find the surface area of a parallelogram is Base*Height.
surface area of glass plate
Lenght X width = surface area
