Question conversion from bar to psi

I see a lot of you guys going back and forth from PSI to bar when refrencing to boost measurements. can someone please lay out the conversion

.1 bar = ?psi
.2 bar = ?psi
.3 bar = ?psi
.4 bar = ?psi
.5 bar = ?psi
.6 bar = ?psi
.7 bar = ?psi
.8 bar = ?psi
.9 bar = ?psi
1.0 bar = ?psi
1.1 bar = ?psi
1.2 bar = ?psi

Sorry if you think its a dumb question, but its starting to get frustrating for me.

Also 1 kg/cm2 =14.2psi. This it the unit used by the PFC.

Eg: Suppose you're running .9 kg/cm2 and want to determine what that is in PSI.

STEP 1:

.9 kg cm2 1 kg cm2
---------- = ---------------
X psi 14.2 psi

STEP 2.
[X psi] * [1kg cm2] =[14.2psi] * [.9kg cm2]

You're solving for X and in this case the only other factor on the left side of the equation is 1 so X does not have to be isolated.

STEP 3.
X =12.78 psi
