Convert metric tonnes to grams with an editable calculator, worked example, formula and reference table. Check the unit definitions before you convert.

Updated · How we check
TRY YOUR OWN NUMBER Reverse conversion

Use a decimal point, such as 2.5. Enter a value in t; the result is in g.

Grams≈ 10,000,000g

Formula

g ≈ t × 1,000,000

Worked example

Convert 10 t to g:

10 t ≈ 10,000,000 g

Multiply your t value by the factor above. The calculator uses the full conversion factor before rounding the displayed answer.

Understanding metric tonnes

One metric tonne equals 1,000 kilograms. It is different from the US short ton and the Imperial long ton; confirm the shipping or material specification before converting.

Understanding grams

A gram is one thousandth of a kilogram. It measures mass, so converting a liquid volume to grams also requires density.

Precision and rounding

The calculator keeps decimal precision during the conversion. Displayed values use up to 10 significant digits; an approximation sign marks the reference results. Keep extra digits until your final measurement or purchase decision.
