    1.5 * 10⁷ kPa = 148038.5 atm = 1.12 x 10⁸ mmHg = 1.12 x 10⁸ torr.

    Explanation:

    To convert from kPa to atm:

    Knowing that:

    1 atm = 101.325 kPa.

    ? atm = 1.5 * 10⁷ kPa.

    Using cross multiplication:

    ∴ 1.5 * 10⁷ kPa = (1 atm) (1.5 * 10⁷ kPa) / (101.325 kPa) = 148038.5 atm,

    To convert from kPa to mmHg:

    Knowing that:

    1.0 kPa = 7.5 mmHg.

    1.5 * 10⁷ kPa = ? mmHg.

    Using cross multiplication:

    ∴ 1.5 * 10⁷ kPa = (7.5 mmHg) (1.5 * 10⁷ kPa) / (1.0 kPa) = 1.12 x 10⁸ mmHg.

    To convert from kPa to torr:

    Knowing that:

    1.0 kPa = 7.5 torr.

    1.5 * 10⁷ kPa = ? torr.

    Using cross multiplication:

    ∴ 1.5 * 10⁷ kPa = (7.5 torr) (1.5 * 10⁷ kPa) / (1.0 kPa) = 1.12 x 10⁸ torr.
