Answer 2

19.25 tons = 38500 lbs

Explanation:

We are to convert the following given amount of tons in pounds.

We know that, 1 ton = 2000 pounds. So using the ration method, we can convert 19.25 tons into pounds.

`(1 ton)/(19.25 tons) =(2000 lbs)/(x)`

`x = 2 0 0 0 * 1 9 . 2 5`

`x = 3 8 5 0 0 lbs`

Therefore, 19.25 tons = 38500 lbs.
