2.205 lb ≈ 1 kg

Depending upon where you are which decide which ton is being used:

  • In the UK (and other countries that use the Long ton):
1 ton = 2240 lb

→ 3 ton = 3 × 2240 lb = 6720 lb ≈ 6720 ÷ 2.205 kg ≈ 3048 kg

  • In the US and other countries that use the Short ton):
1 ton = 2000 lb

→ 3 ton = 3 × 2000 lb = 6000 lb ≈ 6000 ÷ 2.205 kg ≈ 2722 kg

1 tonne (or metric ton) = 1000 kg ≈ 2205 lb which is slightly less than 1 [long] ton = 2240 lb.

In 3 tonnes (3 metric tons) there are 3 × 1000 kg = 3000 kg.
