#4712 # torr

Explanation:

Toconvert atm #to# torr, first identify the equivalence statement of the two units involved; that is,

1 atm = 760 torr

since, we already identify the desired unit to be torr, the conversion factor would be #( 760 t0rr) /(1 atm)#, therefore:

=6.2 #cancel (atm)# x #(760 t0rr)/(1 cancel(atm)#
=#4712 trr#
