Converting the other way: milligrams to metric tons
metric tons = milligrams × 1e-9. So 15,000,000,000 milligrams is back to 15 metric tons; one milligram is 1e-9 metric tons. See the milligrams to metric tons table.
Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 1000000000: 15 × 1000000000 ≈ 15,000,000,000 mg, against the exact 15,000,000,000 mg (0.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.
Common mistakes
The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A metric ton is bigger than a milligram, so the number of milligrams must come out larger than the number of metric tons. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
