The correct answer to this question is 2000. There are many units of measurements and two of them are pounds and tons. Tons is used to measure items that are very large in weight. This is opposed to pounds, because using pounds would be hard.
Though it is a unit of measure, ton is not included in the International System of Units or SI. Today ton is used to weigh a large amount of mass. However, its original use was to measure a large amount of volume. Though not used as much today, ton is still used for volume for cargo ships.
