Probably simplest (easiest not to get mixed up) to convert both to lb, subtract, then convert back to tons. 1 ton = 2000 lb, so: 6t 300 lb = 6x2000 lb + 300 lb = 12000 lb + 300 lb = 12300 lb 2t 900 lb = 2x2000 lb + 900 lb = 4000 lb + 900 lb = 4900 lb 12300 lb - 4900 lb = 7400 lb convert back to tons: 7400 lb/ 2000 lb per ton = 3 tons 1400 lb
