One imperial ton is 2240 pounds which is probably what you are thinking of


A megaton is one million metric tons of 2000 pounds each

dzug, you are confusing the issue here talking of a metric ton being 2000lb. One metric ton (tonne) is equal to 1,000 kilograms, or 2,204.6 pounds.


One megaton is one million tons
= 2240,000,000 pounds

or the metric version will be
= 2204,500,000 pounds
