What pressure did the astronaut exert on the lunar soil, standing still, whose mass with equipment was 175 kg

What pressure did the astronaut exert on the lunar soil, standing still, whose mass with equipment was 175 kg, and the boot left a trail with an area of 410 cm2? Free fall acceleration on the Moon is 1.62 m / s2.

p = F: S
F = 410 cm2 * 2 = 820 cm2
P = mg
m = 175 kg
g = 1.62 m / s2
175 * 1.62 = 283.5 N
283.5: 820 = 0.34573170731 approx.0.4 Pa
answer: approximately 0.4 Pa
