Converting the other way: metric tons to milligrams
milligrams = metric tons × 1,000,000,000. So 4e-7 metric tons is back to 400 milligrams; one metric ton is 1,000,000,000 milligrams. See the metric tons to milligrams table.
Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 1e-9: 400 × 1e-9 ≈ 4e-7 t, against the exact 4e-7 t (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 milligram is smaller than a metric ton, so the number of metric tons must come out smaller than the number of milligrams. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
