NEW ENGLISH COUNT ( Ne)

New English Count (Ne): 

"The number of hanks (skein) of 840 yards in a pound is called new English count (Ne)". Since this system is generally used to express the fineness of cotton yarn, therefore people call it cotton count also. When the count of yarn increases , the yarn gets finer in this system. The new English count is calculated as follows:

Suppose the length of yarn is L meters, the weight of yarn is W grams.
