This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion - Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion is a constant whose value depends upon the cohesion of soil.
Ultimate Bearing Capacity - (Measured in Pascal) - The Ultimate Bearing Capacity is defined as the minimum gross pressure intensity at the base of the foundation at which the soil fails in shear.
Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal - (Measured in Pascal) - Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal also called as surcharge load refers to the vertical pressure or any load that acts over the ground surface additional to basic earth pressure.
Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal - (Measured in Pascal) - Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal is the ability of like particles within soil to hold onto each other. It is the shear strength or force that binds together like particles in the structure of a soil.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Ultimate Bearing Capacity: 60 Kilopascal --> 60000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Effective Surcharge in KiloPascal: 45.9 Kilonewton per Square Meter --> 45900 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Cohesion in Soil as Kilopascal: 1.27 Kilopascal --> 1270 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

N_c = (q_f-σ_s)/(1.3*C) --> (60000-45900)/(1.3*1270)

Evaluating ... ...

N_c = 8.54027861901878

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

8.54027861901878 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

8.54027861901878 ≈ 8.540279 <-- Bearing Capacity Factor dependent on Cohesion
