    Did you know that there is more than one definition of a "ton"?

    Assuming that you are talking about avoirdupois weight - there are 2000 pounds in a "short ton"

    2000 x 10,000 = 20,000,000 pounds

    long ton...short ton...10,000 of either one is staggering!!! (and has absolutely nothing to do with hegagon measurements...)
