Full precision:0.02585984 mmol/L

Step-by-Step Solution

To convert 1 mg/dl to mmol/l, we divide by 38.67 because one millimole per liter equals exactly 38.67 mg/dl.

1 millimole per liter = 38.67 mg/dl

Since there are 38.67 mg/dl in every millimole per liter, we divide our value by this factor:

1 ÷ 38.67 = 0.0259 mmol/l

So 1 mg/dl = 0.0259 mmol/l.

✓Quick check: 0.0259 × 38.67 = 1 mg/dl

How to Convert mg/dL to mmol/L

To convert mg/dl to mmol/l, divide the value by 38.67.

mmol/L = mg/dL ÷ 38.67

1 millimole per liter = 38.67 mg/dl

Tip: To convert mmol/l back to mg/dl, multiply by 38.67.

Example 1: 1 mg/dL = 0.0259 mmol/L
1 ÷ 38.67 = 0.0259

Example 2: 5 mg/dL = 0.1293 mmol/L
5 ÷ 38.67 = 0.1293

Example 3: 10 mg/dL = 0.2586 mmol/L
10 ÷ 38.67 = 0.2586
