Convert to same units and then can compare:

It depends upon which ton you mean:

(UK) 1 [long] ton = 2240 lb

� 9 tons = 9 x 2240 lb = 20,160 lb > 18,000 lb � 18,000 lb is less than 9 tons.

(US) 1 short ton = 2000 lb

� 9 tons = 9 x 2000 lb = 18,000 lb = 18,000 lb � 18,000 lb is neither greater nor less than, but equal to 9 tons.
