1 inch of Hg = 2.54 cm of Hg
30.2 inches of mercury = 30.2 (2.54) cm of mercury = 30.2 (5.08/2) = 15.1(5.08) = 76.7 cm of mercury = 767 torr
760 Torr = 1 Atm
Atm = 1.01 = 767 torr = (767/760) atm
1.36 cm Hg = 1 cm H2O
Hg = 76.7/1.36 cm = 76.7 cm 56.3 cm of H2O H2O = 563 mm H2O
Consequently,
30.2 inches of Hg = 767 cm Hg = 563 mm H2O = 1.01 atm Hg = 767 torr
Thus, 1.01 atm is the appropriate choice.
