How to calculate weight of mild steel plate | MS plate calculation | MS Plate

In this video, we have taken an example of 5mm thickness MS sheet with different sizes to be calculated i.e.
8’× 4’ × 5mm
2500mm × 1250 mm × 5mm
2.5m × 1.25 m × 5mm
MS Plate weight calculation formula is
Length × Width × Thickness × Density (here 7850kg/m3 is taken for MS sheet as a reference)
Now I am taking in description an example of 2mm thickness MS sheet so that it could be further enhance the clarity.
So first, let us consider an MS sheet of size 2500mm × 1250 mm. with 2mm thickness.
Now, we will first calculate the volume of the sheet.
Volume= length × breadth × thickness
= 2500mm × 1250 mm × 2mm
= 6250000 cu.mm
 = 0.00625 cum.
 (1m = 1000 mm.)
As we know, the density of steel = 7850 kg/m3
Weight of MS sheet 
 = 0.00625cum × 7850 kg/m3
 = 49.06 kg.
Suppose you want to calculate the weight of a 8' × 4' size sheet of 2mm thickness,
Then, we will convert the length & breadth of the sheet into meters.
Length  8 ft.= (8× 0.3048) m. = 2.438 m
Breadth (Width) 4 ft = ( 4 × 0.3048 ) m. = 1.219m.
Repeating the same procedure as explained above,
Weight of the MS sheet
 =  [length × breadth × thickness ]× density
 = [2.438m × 1.219m × (2 ÷ 1000 ) m] × 7850 kg/m3
 = 0.005945 cum × 7850 kg/ m3 = 46.66 kg.
Easy method:
First, we will find out the weight of the 1m × 1m × 1mm MS sheet.
(1.)Weight of the sheet
     = [1m × 1m ×(1  ÷ 1000 ) m] × 7850 kg/ m3
    = 7.85 kg 
In a similar way, let us calculate the weight of 1ft. × 1ft × 1mm sheet.
(2.)  Weight of the sheet
   = [(1× 0.3048) m ×( 1 × 0.3048) m ×(1  ÷ 1000 ) m] × 7850 kg/m3 
   = 0.729 kg.
Let us note down these standard weights of the MS sheet for our ready reference.
Now, to calculate the weight of MS sheets of any given dimensions we will multiply the length, breadth, and thickness of that particular sheet with the std. weights of the same unit as calculated above.
For example, we will recalculate the above-given data in one single step as follows.
The weight of the 2500mm × 1250mm × 2mm   MS sheet
 = 7.85kg × 2.5m × 1.25m × 2mm
 = 49.06 kg. 
( Same answer as above) 
Weight of 8ft × 4ft.× 2mm sheet
 = 0.729kg ×  4ft × 8ft × 2mm
 = 46.66 kg.
( Same answer as above)
