How to Convert Long Ton (UK) to Exagram
To convert long tons to kg: multiply by 1,016.047. To convert long tons to short tons: multiply by 1.12.
1 long ton = 2,240 lb = 1,016.047 kg = 1.016 metric tonnes = 1.12 short tons.
For example, 1 Long Ton (UK) (ton (UK)) = 1.016047e-12 Exagram (Eg).

About Long Ton (UK) (ton (UK))
Definition
The long ton (imperial ton) is a unit of mass equal to 2,240 pounds or approximately 1,016 kilograms.
Mathematical Relationship
1 long ton = 2,240 lb = 1,016.047 kg = 1.016 metric tonnes = 1.12 short tons.
Conversion Formula
To convert long tons to kg: multiply by 1,016.047. To convert long tons to short tons: multiply by 1.12.
Practical Applications
Ship displacement tonnage (historical, some naval vessels still use it), and some UK agricultural contexts.
Interesting Facts
Naval ship displacement is traditionally given in long tons. HMS Titanic displaced about 52,310 long tons.
Common Mistakes
Assuming a 'ton' is a 'ton' — the long ton is 12% heavier than a short ton and 1.6% heavier than a metric tonne.
Educational Tips
Easy memory: Long ton = British = 2,240 lb (long = larger). Short ton = US = 2,000 lb (short = smaller).
About Exagram (Eg)
Definition
The exagram equals 10¹⁸ grams or 10¹⁵ kilograms — one trillion tonnes.
Mathematical Relationship
1 Eg = 10¹⁸ g = 10¹⁵ kg = 10⁹ tonnes.
Conversion Formula
To convert Eg to kg: multiply by 10¹⁵. To convert Eg to Pg: multiply by 1,000.
Practical Applications
No everyday applications. Describes masses of small moons or large asteroids.
Interesting Facts
Earth's total mass is about 5.97 × 10⁶ Eg. The entire atmosphere weighs 'only' about 5 Eg.
Common Mistakes
Hardly ever encountered — most contexts use 'times 10^x kg' notation instead of exagrams.
Educational Tips
If you need to express masses between Pg and Earth-masses, the exagram fills that gap: 1 Eg = 10¹⁵ kg.
