Net Mass Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Net Mass.
NM = GM – TM
- Where NM is the Net Mass (kg)
- GM is the gross mass (kg)
- Tm is the tare mass (kg)
How to Calculate Net Mass?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Net Mass.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the gross mass (kg).
- The gross mass (kg) is given as: 1550.
- Next, determine the tare mass (kg).
- The tare mass (kg) is provided as: 750.
- Finally, calculate the Net Mass using the equation above:
NM = GM – TM
The values given above are inserted into the equation below and the solution is calculated:
NM = 1550 – 750 = 800 (kg)
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables needed are provided below:
gross mass (kg) = 6000
tare mass (kg) = 2350
This example problem is a test of your knowledge on the subject. Use the calculator above to check your answer.
NM = GM – TM = ?
