Quick answer: one kilopascal equals 0.01 bars. So to convert kilopascals to bars, multiply by 0.01.
How to convert kilopascals to bars
bars = kilopascals × 0.01
The kilopascal (1,000 Pa) is the practical metric pressure unit — tire pressures in metric countries are quoted around 220 kPa.
The bar (100,000 Pa) sits conveniently close to one atmosphere, which made it the favorite of meteorologists and scuba divers.
