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.

Pound Per Square Inch (abbreviations: psi, or lb/in2): is a unit of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch.

How to Convert Kilopascals to Pounds Per Square Inches

Example: How many pounds per square inches are equivalent to 69.22 kilopascals?

As;

1 kilopascals = 0.145038 pounds per square inches

69.22 kilopascals = Y pounds per square inches

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

Y equals 69.22 times 0.145038 over 1

(i.e.) Y = 69.22 * 0.145038 / 1 = 10.03953036 pounds per square inches

Answer is: 10.03953036 pounds per square inches are equivalent to 69.22 kilopascals.
