mass / area

although technically it should be weight (or force) / area

for example:

imperial

an object with a mass of 1.5 lb and an area of 2 square inches will exert a pressure of 0.75 pounds per square inch (psi)

metric

an object with a mass of 1.5 kg and an area of 0.5 square metres will exert a pressure of 3 kg/m2 (or 3 N/m2 or 3 Pa)
