    342316.6 Pa

    or

    49.65 psi

    Explanation:

    Gauge pressure = 35 psi

    The relation between the absolute pressure and the gauge pressure is given by

    Absolute pressure = Gauge pressure + atmospheric pressure

    1 atmospheric pressure = 1.01 x 10^5 Pa = 101000 Pa

    First convert psi into Pascal

    1 psi = 6894.76 Pa

    So, 35 psi = 35 x 6894.76 = 241316.6 Pa

    So,

    Absolute pressure = 241316.6 + 101000 = 342316.6 Pa or 49.65 psi
