Calculation Formula

Shrinkage Percentage = [(Initial Length - Final Length) / Initial Length] * 100 + [(Initial Width - Final Width) / Initial Width] * 100

Where:
Initial Length: The original length of the fabric before washing.
Final Length: The length of the fabric after washing.
Initial Width: The original width of the fabric before washing.
Final Width: The width of the fabric after washing.

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the initial length and final length of the fabric in centimeters.
  2. Enter the initial width and final width of the fabric in centimeters.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the shrinkage percentage.
  4. The results will display the length shrinkage, width shrinkage, and total shrinkage percentages.

Understanding the Formula

The shrinkage percentage is calculated using the following formula:

Shrinkage Percentage = [(Initial Length - Final Length) / Initial Length] * 100 + [(Initial Width - Final Width) / Initial Width] * 100

This formula provides the percentage shrinkage in both length and width, giving a comprehensive measure of the fabric's shrinkage.
