How to Convert Millibars to Atmospheres
To convert from millibars (mbar) to atmospheres (atm), you multiply the number of millibars by 0.000986923. This is because 1 millibar is equal to 0.000986923 atmospheres.
Formula
Atmospheres = Millibars × 0.000986923
or
atm = mbar × 0.000986923
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in millibars
- Multiply that number by 0.000986923
- The result is the equivalent pressure in atmospheres
Examples
- 1 mbar = 1 × 0.000986923 = 0.000986923 atm
- 1000 mbar = 1000 × 0.000986923 = 0.986923 atm
