If the total blood volume of an individual 5.2 L, how many grams of total blood cholesterol does the individual's body contain?

Question

An individual suffering from high cholesterol levels in her blood has 232 mg of cholesterol per 100 mL of blood.

Answer 1

232 mg/100 ml = 2.32 mg/ml

5.2 L = 5200 mls

5200 mls x 2.32 mg/ml = 12,064 mg

Converting this to grams you get 12.064 g cholesterol = 12.1 g cholesterol (to 3 significant figures)
