m(t) = m(kg) / 1000
By example,We are going to convert 500 kg to tons to see what the result is:
m(t) = m(kg) / 1000 = 500 Kg / 1000 = 0.5 tons.
As can be seen, the calculation is very simple, although, as we have said before, working with a magnitude as large as the ton only makes sense for huge amounts of weight.
How to convert kilos to tons in Excel
Now that we know convert kilos to tons with the formulaLet's see how the conversion is done in Excel.

From the above we can deduce that to go from tons to kilograms, it is enough with multiply by a thousand as shown in the following formula:
m(kg) = m(t) × 1000
By example,We are going to move to Kg a weight of 2 tons:
m(kg) = m(t) × 1000 = 2 tons x 1000 = 2000 Kg.
Tons to kg in Excel
We will also see how convert tons to kilograms using Excel. In this case, we simply have to transfer the formula we have seen in the previous point to the Microsoft spreadsheet program.
=tons*1000
Sólo tienes que escribir la función anterior en una celda vacía y sustituir la palabra "toneladas" por la cantidad de ton que quieres pasar a kg. Por ejemplo, si queremos saber cuántos kilos hay en 5 toneladas, la fórmula a usar será la siguiente:
=5*1000
Press the enter key to get the result. If you have done it right, Excel will calculate that in 5 tons there are 5,000 kilograms.
