Pounds. A ton is 2000 pounds.
Answer:
Originally tons wre defined as 20 hundredweight. This applies to both the British ton (long ton, which is 2240 pounds), and the U.S. ton (short ton which is 2000 pounds). The difference is that the hundredweight used in each system is different. In the U.S. there are 100 pounds in the hundredweight, and in Britain there are 112 pounds in the hundredweight.
There is also the metric ton, equal to 1000 kilograms, or approximately 2204 pounds.
As most of the world except for America has converted to the SI system tons are generally now measured in kilograms.
