A Simple Problem
(... if you are comfortable
with Fractions
)
)Because of a change in medical suppliers, a diabetes patient will be forced to begin using a different syringe to take her daily shots of insulin. Currently she is receiving 3 units, twice per day (at 6 AM and 6 PM) from a ½ cc syringe that is graduated into 50 units. The new syringes are marked as holding ½ ml and are graduated into 80 units.
How many units from the new syringe should
the patient take at each 6 AM and 6 PM shot? Round your
solution to the nearest whole unit.
