Answer:

1860 torr

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to convert from kPa to torr, we are going to use the following conversion factor:

  • 1 kPa = 7.5 torr

Now we multiply 248 kPa with this factor so that the kPa units cancel each other and only the torr units remain:

  • 248 kPa *
    (7.5torr)/(1kPa) = 1860 torr

This means that the answer is 1860 torr.
