Answer 1

Well, let's think about this methodically. 1000kg to a ton. usually one square metre of water weighs 1kg. To be brutally honest, you answered your own question... "How much does a hundred tons of water weigh?"

100 tons...

1 ton is 20 cwt, so 100 ton is 2000 cwt

1 cwt is 8 st, so 2000 cwt (100 tons) is 16000 st

1 st is 14 lb, so 16000 st (100 tons) is 224000 lb

1 lb is approx 0.454kg, so 224000 lb (100 tons) is approx 101605 kg

1 tonne is 1000kg, so 100 tons is approx 101.605 tonnes.

100 tons of water weighs 100 tons, 2000 cwt, 16000 st, 224000 lb, approx 101605kg, approx 102 tonnes which is approx 13 (empty) London double decker (Routemaster) buses.
