Definitions:

Kilopascal (abbreviations: kPa, or kN/m2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength. It is one kilonewton per square meter. It is named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal.

Megapascal (abbreviations: Mpa, or MN/m2, or N/mm2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength. It is one meganewton per square meter or one newton per square millimeter. It is named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal.


How to Convert Kilopascals to Megapascals

Example: How many megapascals are equivalent to 8.47 kilopascals?


As;

1 kilopascals = 0.001 megapascals

8.47 kilopascals = Y megapascals

Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;

Y equals 8.47 times 0.001 over 1

(i.e.) Y = 8.47 * 0.001 / 1 = 0.00847 megapascals

Answer is: 0.00847 megapascals are equivalent to 8.47 kilopascals.
