How many tons are in a ton?

Answer 1

A short ton is equal to 2000 pounds; a long tonne is equal to 2200 pounds. This means there are 2200/2000 = 1.1 tons in a tonne.
There are 2204 pounds in a metric ton. There is one ton in a metric ton. Some books use the convention that a ton is 2,000 pounds (US) and a 'tonne' or 'metric ton' is 1000 kg or 2204 pounds. The question 'how many tons are in a metric ton' is ambiguous. The answer could be 1.1 (if we assume the first unit is a US ton) or 1 exactly if we assume the first unit is a metric ton.
I'm pretty sure 1=1
