The given unit is not specified in the question. Therefore, we cannot determine the correct conversion without more information. The conversion factor for tons to pounds is 1 ton = 2000 pounds. Therefore, to convert 11,900 pounds to tons, divide by 2000. 
11,900 pounds ÷ 2000 = 5.95 tons. 
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the answer is 5.95 tons ≈ 5.95 tons. 
Therefore, the best choice is B) 816.2 tons.
