Mass of the container = 1.293 metric tons
The conversion factor between metric tons and grams is,
[tex] 1 metric ton = 10^{6} g [/tex]
Converting mass from metric tons to grams:
[tex] 1.293 metric ton * \frac{10^{6}}{1 metric ton} = 1.293 * 10^{6} g [/tex]
Therefore, the mass of container in grams is 1.293 * [tex] 10^{6} g [/tex]
