How to Convert Gram to Metric Ton
- 1 g = 0.000001 t
- 1 t = 1000000 g
- Example: convert 15 g to t: 15 g = 15 × 0.000001 t = 0.000015 t
Formula
t = g ÷ 1000000
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 g = 10⁻³ kg
- 1 t = 1000 kg (accepted for use with the SI)
- 1 g = 0.001 kg ÷ 1000 kg per t = 0.000001 t
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Gram definition: gram; Metric Ton definition: metric ton.
Worked examples
- A reading of 25 g converts to 0.000025 t.
25 g × 0.000001 = 0.000025 t - A value of 150 g is 0.00015 t.
150 g × 0.000001 = 0.00015 t

Where it's used
Grams are used for recipes and nutrition labels, while metric tons appear in vehicle and crane capacities. Both measure mass (commonly called weight), so the conversion is a fixed factor.
