Answer:

6.460 gm  is the correct answer .

Explanation:

Given

Kate’s blood volume=[tex]3.8L[/tex]

blood glucose=[tex]170\ mg/dL[/tex]

As we know that

[tex]1\ dL= 10^{-1}\ litre[/tex]

The [tex]10^{-1}[/tex]   includes the blood glucose of the [tex]170\ mg/dL,[/tex]

So [tex]3.8L.[/tex] of the Kate’s blood volume  can be determined by

[tex]=\ \frac{170 * 3.8 }{10^{-1} }[/tex]

[tex]=170 * 38 \ mg[/tex]

[tex]=6460\ mg[/tex]

To convert into the gm we have divided by the 1000

[tex]6.460 \ gm[/tex]

Therefore the glucose in her blood=

[tex]6.460 \ gm[/tex]

Answer:

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.
