when we convert 32.5 lb/in² to atmosphere, the result obtained is 2.21 atm

<h3>Conversion scale</h3>

14.6959 lb/in² = 1 atm

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

Pressure (in lb/in²) = 32.5 lb/in²
Pressure (in ATM) =?

<h3>How to convert 32.5 lb/in² to atm</h3>

14.6959 lb/in² = 1 atm

Therefore

32.5 lb/in² = 32.5 / 14.6959

32.5 lb/in² = 2.21 atm

Thus, 32.5 lb/in² is equivalent to 2.21 atm
