What is the relationship between megagram and tonne?

One megagram (Mg) is exactly equal to one tonne (t), making conversion between them a one-to-one relationship.

Is the tonne an SI unit like the megagram?

The tonne is a non-SI unit but is accepted for use with the International System of Units, whereas the megagram is an SI-derived unit.

Can this tool convert megagram to short ton or long ton?

No, this tool specifically converts between megagram and tonne only, and does not handle other ton units.
