A short ton equals 2,000 pounds (lbs).

If one rice bag weighs 100 lbs, then:

2000÷100=202000 \div 100 = 202000÷100=20

So, 20 bags of 100 lb rice make one ton.

Now, if we convert this into kilograms (kg):

1 lb = 0.453592 kg

So, 100 lb ≈ 45.36 kg.

That means 20 × 45.36 kg = 907.2 kg, which equals one metric ton (approx).

At Disha Jute, rice bags are typically designed for 25 kg or 26 kg capacities.

So, to equal one metric ton (1,000 kg):

• Using 25 kg bags → 1000 ÷ 25 = 40 bags

• Using 26 kg bags → 1000 ÷ 26 ≈ 38.46 bags (≈39 bags)

✅ Conclusion:

• 20 bags of 100 lb rice = 1 short ton

• 40 bags of 25 kg rice or 39 bags of 26 kg rice ≈ 1 metric ton
