Here is an online yarn count to fabric GSM converter which helps you in converting the yarn count values into fabric GSM.

Let us consider an example to find the Fabric GSM for the given values,
Wales per inch w = 5
Stitch length s = 10 mm
Course per inch c = 5
Yarn count n = 2
Applying the values in the formula,
g=(Wales per Inch x Stitch Length x Course per Inch x 0.9155) / Count
g = (5 x 10 x 5 x 0.9155) / 2
g = (228.875)/2
g = 114.4375
Therefore, the GSM Value is 114.4375
