Full precision:0.49346 atm
Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 500 hectopascals to atmospheres, we divide by 1013.25 because one atmosphere equals exactly 1013.25 hectopascals.

1 atmosphere = 1013.25 hectopascals

Since there are 1013.25 hectopascals in every atmosphere, we divide our value by this factor:

500 ÷ 1013.25 = 0.49346 atmospheres

So 500 hectopascals = 0.49346 atmospheres.

Quick check: 0.49346 × 1013.25 = 500 hectopascals
