    Answer: 0.0186 atm

    Explanation:

    Pressure can be measured in the following units: Pascals (pa), atmosphere (Atm), Newton per metre square (Nm^-2).

    In this case,

    Pressure of detector = 1.88kPa

    (Covert 1.88kPa to Pascal)

    Recall that 1kPa = 1000Pa

    1.88kPa = 1.88 x 1000 = 1880Pa

    Now, convert 1880Pa to Atm

    Recall that:

    1 Atm = 101325 pascal (Pa).

    Z Atm = 1880Pa

    To get the value of Z, cross multiply

    1880Pa x 1 Atm = 101325Pa x Z Atm

    1880 = 101325Z

    Divide both sides by 101325

    1880/101325 = 101325Z/101325

    0.0186 = Z

    Thus, the 0.0186 atm (atmospheres) of pressure in 1.88kPa
