This problem only needs information regarding the conversion factor of metric ton to grams. It is known that 1 metric ton is equivalent to 1000000 grams. Thus to solve for the mass of container in grams just multiply 1.293 with 1000000. The answer is 1.293 x 10^6 grams. 

Answer:

[tex]1.293 \times 10^{6} grams[/tex]

Explanation:

Mass of the container m = 1.293 metric tons

One metric ton is equal to one million grams

The conversion factor is

1 metric ton = [tex]1 \times 10^{6} grams[/tex]

so

[tex]1.293 metric tons \times \frac{1 \times 10^6 grams}{1 metric ton} \\\\1.293 \times 10^6 grams[/tex]
