Question

Is 4,000 pounds really 2 tons, when I get the answer of (1.81436948) 1.81 tons is not 2 tons so why does everyone keep saying it is when the conversion calculator says it's

(1.81436948) 1.81 or 1.82 when rounded up it's still not 2 ton's it's close but it's still under 2 tons And how can a conversion calculator be wrong. 1.81 is not the same as 2 tons! because 2,000 pounds equals (0.90718474) which is under 1 ton its tech... not 1 ton!
So it's okay for people to make up lies in math to make it easier!

Answer 1

There are 2 tons in 4000 pounds. In order to figure this out, you must first know how many pounds are in a ton. There are 2000 pounds in one ton. Now you can either divide 4000 by 2000 or add to see how many groups of 2000 make 4000.
