Answer

$$P=190 \mathrm{\ kPa}$$

Work Step by Step

Knowing the standard air pressure value in several units allows us to set up a variety of conversion factors: $$P=\left(28 \mathrm{\ lb} / \mathrm{\ in} .^{2}\right)\left(\frac{1.01 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{\ Pa}}{14.7 \mathrm{\ lb} / \mathrm{in}^{2}}\right)=190 \mathrm{\ kPa}$$
