i bought this tires online and it's a compass brand. it's maximum PSI is 36, TPI is 27, and Max Load says on the side of the wheel is 50kg and i am 64kg (141lbs), can i still use this on my folding bike? i mainly travel to school 4km back and forth 7 times a week, how long will this last?

Since your weight is spread approx 60/40 back/Front then should be fine.
Good point, if you could weigh the back wheel on scale and then front (keeping bike level as possible) that will give you the true ratio.
I would not worry too much. This isn’t some super light racing gear that could break under a heavy rider. Just some regular tires.
Keep your pressure within acceptable range and you’ll be fine.
Perhaps cross-post to a “folders” discussion. Brompton owners must face this a lot.
