12,000 pounds is 6 tons.
about 5.4 tonnes or 6 us ton
6 us tons
4000 lbs 1 US (short) ton = 2000 lb 1 UK (long) ton = 2240 lb 1 tonne (metric) = 2204.6 lb
6800 lb = 3.4 t(US)6800 lb = 3.4 t(US)6800 lb = 3.4 t(US)6800 lb = 3.4 t(US)6800 lb = 3.4 t(US)6800 lb = 3.4 t(US)
88,000 lbs divided by 2,000 lbs (Short ton) = 44 Short Tons
33000 lb = 16.5 t(US)33000 lb = 16.5 t(US)33000 lb = 16.5 t(US)33000 lb = 16.5 t(US)33000 lb = 16.5 t(US)33000 lb = 16.5 t(US)
In order to not make it too easy, there's 2000 lbs in a ton.Answer:2000 lb in a short ton, 2200 lb in a long ton, 2204 lb in metric ton (tonne)
6 tons 1 US (short) ton = 2000 lb 1 UK (long) ton = 2240 lb 1 tonne (metric) = 2204.6 lb
One ton is 2,000 pounds, so 12,000 pounds would be 6 tons.
3 tons 5000 lbs.
I guess you mean either tons (long or short) or tonnes by 't': 1 (short) ton = 2000 lb → 12000 lb = 12000 lb ÷ 2000 lb/t = 6 t 1 (long) ton = 2240 lb → 12000 lb = 12000 lb ÷ 2240 lb/t = 5 5/14 t ≈ 5.357 t 1 kg ≈ 2.205 lb 1 tonne = 1000 kg ≈ 2205lb → 12000 lb ≈ 12000 lb ÷ 2205 lb/t ≈ 5.443 t
1 ton = 2240 lb 6 tons = 6 x 2240 = 13440 lb
5 U.S. tons is 10,000 pounds. 5 British tonnes (long tons) is 11,000 pounds.
12000 lb = 6 t(US)12000 lb = 6 t(US)12000 lb = 6 t(US)12000 lb = 6 t(US)12000 lb = 6 t(US)12000 lb = 6 t(US)
12,000 pounds is 5.443 metric tons.
6 t(US) = 12000 lb. Thus, they are equal in weight.
Probably simplest (easiest not to get mixed up) to convert both to lb, subtract, then convert back to tons. 1 ton = 2000 lb, so: 6t 300 lb = 6x2000 lb + 300 lb = 12000 lb + 300 lb = 12300 lb 2t 900 lb = 2x2000 lb + 900 lb = 4000 lb + 900 lb = 4900 lb 12300 lb - 4900 lb = 7400 lb convert back to tons: 7400 lb/ 2000 lb per ton = 3 tons 1400 lb

6 tons = about 12,000 lb because 1 ton is 2,000 lb so 2,000x6=12,000. 6 metric tonnes = 6000 kg x 2.204 = 13224 pounds 6 short tons = 6 x 2000 =12000 pounds 6 long tons = 6 x 2240 = 13440 pounds
