Answer:

Explanation:

We are asked to convert 15 English tons (short) to metric tons.

\text{15 English tons (short)}=15\text{ tons}* \frac{\text{0.907185 metric tons}}{\text{ ton}}


\text{15 English tons (short)}=15*\text{0.907185 metric tons}


\text{15 English tons (short)}=13.607775\text{ metric tons}


\text{15 English tons (short)}\approx 13.61\text{ metric tons}
