Answer:

The answer is approx. 11.9g or 11.858g.

Explanation:

Given:

The cholesterol level = 242 mg/100ml

Total blood volume = 4.9L

Conversions:

1000ml = 1L

100ml = 0.1L

0.1L = 242mg of cholesterol

Using unitary method:

0.1L = 242mg

4.9L = 242/0.1 * 4.9L

        = 11858 mg

As, 1g = 1000 mg,

11858mg = 11858/1000

               = 11.858g or 11.9g
