Kate’s blood volume is 3.8L. Before treatment, if her blood glucose was 170 mg/dL, how many grams of glucose were in her blood?

6.460 gm  is the correct answer .

Explanation:

Given

Kate’s blood volume=

blood glucose=

As we know that

The   includes the blood glucose of the

So of the Kate’s blood volume  can be determined by

To convert into the gm we have divided by the 1000

Therefore the glucose in her blood=

6.460 g

Explanation:

Glucose is a simple carbohydrate molecule which circulates in the blood along with other substances. The amount of glucose is measured to treat the medical conditions of patients which is measured as mg/dL.

1 liter of liquid contains 10 deciliters therefore 1 dL will have 0.1 liter or

1 dL= 10^-1 liter (0.1)

In the given question,  

the total volume of blood = 3.8 L

1 dL of blood contains = 170 mg

3.8 L will have = (3.8 x 170)/0.1

=6460 mg

= 6.460 g

Thus, 6.460 g is the correct answer.
