A bicycle tire gauge reads 350\,kPa when attached to a fully inflated tire. Which statement about the air pressure inside the tire is most accurate? (Assume atmospheric pressure is 100\,kPa.)
(a) The air inside is at an absolute pressure of about 250kPa.
(b) The air inside is at an absolute pressure of about 350kPa.
(c) The air inside is at an absolute pressure of about 450kPa.
(d) The absolute pressure cannot be found without the tire’s volume.
