You don't, that is what computers are for ;-)

  $ units
  1364 units, 53 prefixes

  You have: 9.5 kg force / cm^2
  You want: psi
          * 135.12176
          / 0.0074007324

And, as my contribution to the annual "what gasoline costs here" survey:

  You have: 9 norwaykrone / liter
  You want: US$ / USgallon
          * 5.2908701
          / 0.18900521
