Definitions:

Slug (abbreviations: ps2pf, or lb.s2/ft): is a unit of mass in the weight-based system of measures, especially within the British Imperial measurement system and in the United States customary measures system. Systems of measure either define mass and derive weights or define a base weight and derive a mass unit. It is the mass that is accelerated by 1 ft/s2 when a force of one pound (lbf) is applied on it.

Long Ton (abbreviations: Lton, or ton imperial): is a non-SI metric unit of mass. Although, it is used principally as a unit of mass, it has acquired a number of meanings and uses over long years. It is equivalent to 1,016 kilograms (Kg), or approximately 2,239.859 pounds (lb), or 1.119929 short tons (US), or 1.016 metric tons.


How to Convert Slugs to Long Tons

Example: How many Long tons are equivalent to 8.86 slugs?


As;

1 slugs = 0.014375003261172 Long tons

8.86 slugs = Y Long tons

Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;

Y equals 8.86 times 0.014375003261172 over 1

(i.e.) Y = 8.86 * 0.014375003261172 / 1 = 0.12736252889399 Long tons

Answer is: 0.12736252889399 Long tons are equivalent to 8.86 slugs.
