1 psi = 0.068 atm
Full precision:0.06804599 atm
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 psi to atmospheres, we divide by 14.6959 because one atmosphere equals exactly 14.6959 psi.
1 atmosphere = 14.6959 psi
Since there are 14.6959 psi in every atmosphere, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 14.6959 = 0.068 atmospheres
So 1 psi = 0.068 atmospheres.
Quick check: 0.068 × 14.6959 = 1 psi
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 psi = 0.068 atm
1 ÷ 14.6959 = 0.068
1 ÷ 14.6959 = 0.068
Example 2: 5 psi = 0.3402 atm
5 ÷ 14.6959 = 0.3402
5 ÷ 14.6959 = 0.3402
Example 3: 10 psi = 0.6805 atm
10 ÷ 14.6959 = 0.6805
10 ÷ 14.6959 = 0.6805
