Question

cholesterol levels are measured in mg/dL in the USA. if your HDL is 150 mg/dL what is this in ppm? (Assume the density of blood= 1g/mL) Hint: a 10 ppm (parts per million) solution cholesterol levels are measured in mg/dL in the USA. if your HDL is 150 mg/dL what is this in ppm? (Assume the density of blood= 1g/mL) Hint: a 10 ppm (parts per million) solution cholesterol levels are measured in mg/dL in the USA. if your HDL is 150 mg/dL what is this in ppm? (Assume the density of blood= 1g/mL) Hint: a 10 ppm (parts per million) solution

Explanation / Answer

Conversion

1 mg/DL = 0.01 g/L

1 ppm = 1 mg/L

So,

150 mg/DL = 150 x 0.01

                   = 1.5 g/L

                   = 1.5 x 1000 mg/L

                    = 1500 mg/L

                    = 1500 ppm
