Isn't a ton = 1000 kg, if so, why is this 3.054 and not 2.771 tons?

- kitd 12y agoA "short" ton == 2000lb A metric ton (aka "tonne") == 1000kg And in fact 6104 / 2000 = 3.052, so OP lost a few lbs in the conversion process as well.
- ghshephard 12y agoInteresting - Wikipedia tells me that, "In the United Kingdom the ton is defined as 2,240 pounds (1,016 kg)" - so an imperial "ton" is almost 1000 kg there.
