If 1.1 tons equals 1 ton, which weight conversion is accurate?

  1. 1.1 ton equals 1000 kg

  2. 1.1 ton equals 2000 lb

  3. 1.1 ton equals 2200 lb

  4. 1.1 ton equals 3000 lb

The correct answer is: 1.1 ton equals 2000 lb

The statement "1.1 tons equals 1 ton" implies a typographical or logical inconsistency, as 1.1 tons naturally exceeds 1 ton. However, focusing on the correct conversion, 1 ton equals 2000 pounds. Therefore, if we are evaluating the options presented, 1.1 tons would convert to 2200 pounds, as it is calculated by multiplying 1.1 by 2000. This conversion holds true under the appropriate mathematical operations. Hence, the accurate conversion from tons to pounds for 1.1 tons aligns with the choice that states it equals 2200 pounds. The other conversions listed either misrepresent the weight or inaccurately apply the conversion factor from tons to either kilograms or pounds.
