1 ton = 2240 lb

⇒ 1.8 tons = 1.8 x 2240 lb

= 4032 lbs

Recently I have come across long and short tons. I was taught 1 ton = 2240 lb (= 1 long ton); recently discovered 1 short ton = 2000 lb. An unqualified ton can refer to either of these, possibly depending upon your location, so to be complete:

If you use the short ton (which USA seems to):

1 ton = 2000 lb

⇒ 1.8 tons = 1.8 x 2000 lb

= 3600 lbs
