Hey can someone help, im having trouble converting alot.

IP The weight of your 1440 kg car is supported equally by its four tires, each inflated to a gauge pressure of 30.0 lb/in^2.

What is the area of contact each tire makes with the road?

What gauge pressure is required to give an area of contact of 122 for each tire?

4*gauge pressure*area=weight of car
4*30lb/in^2=1440kg*1lb/.454kg

check my thinking
