To convert a milligram measurement to a ton measurement, divide the weight by the conversion ratio.

Since one ton is equal to 907,184,740 milligrams, you can use this simple formula to convert:

tons = milligrams ÷ 907,184,740

The weight in tons is equal to the milligrams divided by 907,184,740.

For example, here's how to convert 500,000,000 milligrams to tons using the formula above.
500,000,000 mg = (500,000,000 ÷ 907,184,740) = 0.551156 t

Milligrams and tons are both units used to measure weight. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

Milligrams

The milligram is the mass equal to 1/1,000 of a gram, or 0.0154 grains.

The milligram, or milligramme, is an SI unit of weight in the metric system. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for 10-3. Milligrams can be abbreviated as mg; for example, 1 milligram can be written as 1 mg.

Tons

One short ton, sometimes called a US ton, is equal to 2,000 pounds and is mostly used in the US as a unit of mass/weight.[1] The short ton should not be confused with the long ton, which is used mostly in the United Kingdom, or the metric ton which is used in most other countries.

The ton is a US customary unit of weight. A ton is sometimes also referred to as a short ton. Tons can be abbreviated as t; for example, 1 ton can be written as 1 t.
