How many quintals are there in one metric ton?
A). 10
B). 100
C). 1000
D). None of these.

Hint: This is the question of the unit conversion and in this particular question, we will use the value of quintal and tonnes in terms of the kilogram. Firstly, we will convert both of them (quintals and metric tons) in a common unit. Then it will be easier to convert the one metric ton in quintals.

Complete step-by-step solution:
So firstly, we will write one metric ton into the kilogram unit, and we will assign that relation as equation (1),
$1$ metric ton = \[1000Kg\] = \[{10^3}Kg\]
So $1$ metric ton= \[{10^3}Kg\]-----equation (1)
Now we will write the relation between the quintals and the kilograms and we will assign that relation as equation (2),
$1$quintal= $100Kg$=${10^2}Kg$
So, $1$quintal=${10^2}Kg$------equation (2)
Now on dividing the equation (1) by the equation (2), we get
$\dfrac{{1{\text{ }}metric{\text{ }}ton}}{{1{\text{ }}quintal}} = \dfrac{{{{10}^3}Kg}}{{{{10}^2}Kg}}$
$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{1{\text{ }}metric{\text{ }}ton}}{{1{\text{ }}quintal}} = 10$
$ \Rightarrow 1{\text{ }}metric{\text{ }}ton = 10{\text{ }}quintal$
So, there are 10 quintals in one metric ton.
Hence option (A) is the correct answer.

Note: Quintal is a unit of mass, and the symbol of the quintal is written as [q]. We have seen in the above discussion that one quintal is equal to the 10Kg and if we convert this quintal into the pounds then 1 quintal will be equal to the 220.426 pounds, as 1Kg is equal to the 0.453592 pounds. The metric tons are the measurement of the 1000Kg and it is equivalent to approximately 2,204.6 pounds. A quintal is 100 of whatever mass unit is in use where you live. A quintal is five stones of twenty pounds, so there were 20 to the ton. Under metric, when the grave was abolished it replaced the hectograph, and thus became a hector-kilogram, hector hog, or choice.
