Is 3T 500lbs greater than 7000lbs?

Answer 1

Yes; or No - depending upon whether you are using the long ton of 2240 lbs (used in UK) or the short ton of 2000 lb (used in the US):

• long ton:

1T = 2240 lb

→ 3T 500 lb = 3 x 2240 lb + 500 lb

= 6720 lb + 500 lb

= 7220 lb > 7000 lb - Yes

• Short ton:

1T = 2000 lb

→ 3T 500 lb = 3 x 2000 lb + 500 lb

= 6000 lb + 500 lb

= 6500 lb < 7000 lb - No
