Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). Convert 200 mcg to mg: find x.

200 mcg1 mg = 1000 mcg

x = mg

2.Easy

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). Convert 3.4 kg to g: find x.

3.4 kg1 kg = 1000 g

x = g

3.Medium

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A patient’s temperature is 104.4 °F. Convert it to degrees Celsius T with °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. Round to one decimal place.

104.4 °F

T = °C

4.Medium

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A patient’s temperature is 100 °F. Convert it to degrees Celsius T with °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. Round to one decimal place.

100 °F

T = °C

5.Hard

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A blood glucose result is 20 mmol/L. Using 1 mmol/L = 18 mg/dL for glucose, find c in mg/dL to the nearest whole number.

20 mmol/L1 mmol/L = 18 mg/dL

c = mg/dL

6.Hard

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An infusion starts at 19:35 and finishes at 03:35 the next morning (24-hour clock). How many hours t did it run? Give the answer in hours as a decimal, rounded to two decimal places.
