Carsen Holland · Answer 1

That is 12,000 pounds.

1 ton = 2,000 pounds, so do 2,000 x 6

Clay Lambert · Answer 2

So, in order to do this we need to know how many pounds equal 1 ton.

1 ton=2,000 pounds.

Since we know this, than we multiply 6*2,000=12000.

So, the company makes 12000 pounds of steel girders or 6 tons.
