Convert tonne to gram
Please provide values below to convert tonne [t] to gram [g], or Convert gram to tonne.
1 t = 1000000 g. To convert tonne to gram, multiply the value by 1000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 g = 1e-06 t). Both units measure weight and mass and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 t = 1000000 g
- 1 g = 1e-06 t
- 10 t = 10000000 g
- 100 t = 100000000 g
How to Convert Tonne to Gram
1 t = 1000000 g
Example: convert 15 t to g:
15 t = 15 × 1000000 g = 15000000 g

Tonne
A tonne (symbol: t) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms or approximately 2,204.62 pounds.
History/Origin
The tonne was introduced as part of the metric system in the 19th century to standardize measurements of mass globally, replacing various local units with a single, consistent unit.
Current Use
The tonne is widely used internationally in industries such as shipping, manufacturing, and agriculture for measuring large quantities of materials and commodities.
Gram
The gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to one thousandth of a kilogram.
History/Origin
The gram was originally defined in 1795 as the mass of one cubic centimeter of water at its maximum density. It became part of the metric system established in France and was later standardized as part of the International System of Units (SI) in 1960.
Current Use
The gram is widely used worldwide for measuring small masses in everyday life, science, and industry, especially in contexts like food labeling, pharmaceuticals, and laboratory measurements.
