How much precision do you need?
Each row is the same answer cut at a different number of decimals, with what that choice costs you. Pick the shortest row whose error is smaller than whatever you are measuring with.
| Rounded to | Answer (psi) | Off by |
|---|---|---|
| Whole number | 7 | −0.25189 |
| 1 decimal | 7.3 | +0.04811 |
| 2 decimals | 7.25 | −0.00189 |
Round trip: take 7.25 psi back the other way and you land on 49.9870 kPa — a drift of 0.0130 kPa. That gap is the rounding, not the conversion.
