Zeros got you!: was- mg/dl

[Guest guest]

kcd,

Yep, the zeros did it to you!!!

One milligram (mg) is 1/1000 (one one-thousandth) of a gram

1/1,000,000 of a gram is one microgram (mcg)

& to answer someones later question, it's deciliter (1/10 Liter)

, T2, etc.............

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

to break this down further, this is mg = milligram, 1/1,000,000th of a gram

(one millionth) of a gram per

dl = deciliter, 1/10 of a liter (a tenth).

hope this helps. the zeros give me vertigo. i had to do all kinds of

metric spelling like that for my physics board in may. . .got 98%. .

..amazing how much has gone by the wayside in2 months!
