## Formula

- `1 inHg = 33.8639 hPa`
- `hectopascals = inches of mercury × 33.8638864`
- Reverse: `inches of mercury = hectopascals × 0.0295299833`

The factor follows from the SI definitions of both units (NIST SP 811); values below are rounded to 6 significant figures, the API returns up to 12.

## Worked examples

- 5 inHg = 169.319 hPa
- 12.5 inHg = 423.299 hPa
- 100 inHg = 3386.39 hPa
