How many tons does 1.1 ton convert to in pounds?

2200 lb
2400 lb
2000 lb
2500 lb

The correct answer is: 2200 lb

To convert tons to pounds, it's important to understand the conversion factor between these two units. One ton (specifically, a US ton) is equivalent to 2,000 pounds. Therefore, to find out how many pounds are in 1.1 tons, you would multiply 1.1 by 2,000. 1.1 tons * 2,000 pounds/ton = 2,200 pounds. This calculation shows that 1.1 tons converts to 2,200 pounds, confirming that the correct answer is indeed 2,200 lb. Understanding this conversion is essential for solving problems involving weight measurement and can help when working with larger quantities in different units.
