What's a fromula? Pressure is measured in force per unit area.

The most basic formula for pressure is actually
P = F/A where F is force and A is Surface area of the object (The one exposed to pressure)
But there are actually more formula to pressure, example is phg which is density x times x gravitational force which is actually used for pressure of liquid

Pressure (P) = Force (F) divided by Area (A)
P = F/A
There are a bunch of other formulae involving pressure, but this if the first and most basic. See the wiki page.

The definition of pressure is " The force exerted by a body per unit surface area" ( on which it is acting). Its C.G.S. unit is dyne/cm2 and its M.K.S. unit is Newton/m2. The basic formula for pressure is ,
Pressure = Force/Area.
There are few types of pressures, for eg., the value of atmospheric pressure is 76 cm of Hg.

Can you be more specific please?
There are different kinds of 'pressure'. Mechanical pressure, fluid pressure.....
If you can clarify someone will be able to help you.

P=Force/Area
Pressure for a gas
P=density*R*Temp
