Formula
Formula
t = g × 1e-6
Multiply any value in grams by 1e-6 to obtain the value in metric tonnes.
Worked example
Convert 1.00000e+6 g to t.
- 01Start with 1.00000e+6 g.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1.00000e+6 × 1e-6 = 1 t.
Result1.00000e+6 g = 1 t

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from g to t?
1 g equals 1e-6 t. To convert, multiply the value in grams by 1e-6.
How do I convert 1 g to t?
1 g = 1e-6 t. For any value, multiply by 1e-6.
How do I convert t back to g?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1000000. So 1 t = 1.00000e+6 g.
When would I need to convert gram to metric tonne?
Mass conversions appear in material balances, reagent dosing, and reconciling vendor specifications across imperial/metric systems.
Is the conversion exact?
Yes. Both g and t are defined by exact SI relationships, so the displayed factor is exact (any rounding shown is only for display).
