Number of pieces crosswise = 4 ft / 8 inches = 48 inches / 8 inches = 6 Number of pieces lengthwise = 8 ft / 20 inches = 96 inches / 20 inches = 3 So, total number of pieces = 6*3 = 18.

Are made by crushing mineral sample. After sending them into a filter and sorts from size. Then are placed on a microscope slide.
Sedimentary rock usually exhibits stratification, or layering of sediments.
Rice as a whole grain is a natural grain.
For sewing pattern layout, folds are made along the grain line. Lengthwise center fold would be folding the fabric with selvages together. Crosswise centerfold is folding the fabric at the crosswise grain, that is along the weft threads from selvage to selvage.
A grain of fabric refers to the direction of the threads in the fabric. Fabrics have three grains: lengthwise grain (parallel to the selvage edge), crosswise grain (perpendicular to the selvage edge), and bias grain (45-degree angle to the lengthwise or crosswise grain). Each grain behaves differently when fabric is cut or manipulated.
If you are cutting something crosswise, you are cutting it against the grain, Generally some meats like brisket are best cut crosswise , as are some woods.
That is the bias. When you have a pattern that states "cut on bias" the pattern piece would be placed in a fastion that would be a "diagonal line against fabric grain". Pattern pieces cut in this fashion are sometimes more difficult to sew because when fabric is cut on the bias it gives the cut edge more of a stretch.
Cross grain means running across the regular grain of a piece of wood.Cross grain or crosswise grain in fabrics means that the fabric grain has more stretch than lengthwise but less than bias.
Granite has a heterogeneous grain pattern or texture.
Number of pieces crosswise = 4 ft / 8 inches = 48 inches / 8 inches = 6 Number of pieces lengthwise = 8 ft / 20 inches = 96 inches / 20 inches = 3 So, total number of pieces = 6*3 = 18.
The way the fabric is woven gives it different properties in different directions. When you are cutting a pattern you want to get all the pieces on the same "grain", i.e. a piece that will be vertical on your body should not be cut diagonally on the peace of fabric (unless you cut all the pieces diagonally or on the bias). The grain of the fabric is the natural direction of the fabric, usually up and down along the length of the fabric.

In Ancient Egypt 20 lb. of grain cost 3 silver pieces.

The grain line arrow is to be placed parallel to the selvedge. Measure the end of the line to the selvedge, pin. Then make sure the other end of the arrow is the same distance from the selvedge and pin. This process is extremely important. If your garment is not cut 'on the grain', it wont hang properly, it won't be comfortable - you'll always feel 'off' when wearing it, but you won't know why, so you just won't wear it. Never skip this step of laying out your pattern, and never eyeball it. Measure it.
