Please Help! A car tire has a pressure of 229 kPa. What is this pressure in psi? [1 atm = 101.3 kPa and 1 atm = 14.7 psi]
psi. Do NOT enter unit. Report your final answer with 3 SFs.

33.2 psi

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure of car = 229 KPa

Pressure in Psi = ?

Solution:

It is given that 1 atm = 101.3 KPa

and

1 atm = 14.7 psi

We will convert the pressure into atm first.

229 KPa × 1 atm / 101.3 KPa = 2.26 atm

Now we will convert the atm into psi

2.26atm ×14.7 psi/1 atm

33.2 psi
