What is the gluten ratio in micrograms per milliliter \left(\dfrac{\mu\text{g}}{\text{mL}}\right)( mL ?g ? )left parenthesis, start fraction, mu, g, divided by, m, L, end fraction, right parenthesis?

Answer 1

13

Explanation:

Answer 2

We are given, a certain food has a gluten ratio of
`13 (mg)/(L)`.

We need to convert milligrams per liter into micro-grams per milliliter.

1 mg = 1000 micro-grams.

And 1 L = 1000 milliliter.

Substituting 1 mg = 1000 micro-grams and 1 L = 1000 milliliter, we get

`13 (1000 \ micro-grams)/(1000 \ milliliter) = 13 (micro-grams)/(milliliter)`

= 13 µg/mL
