mmol/L to mg/dl Conversion

I’m the opposite. I use mmol/L and get confused by mg/dL. This works both ways. Thanks for sharing.

@Sam To your point, I tend to simplify these types of equations, similar to the Fahrenheit/Celsius conversion. When in Europe, instead of doing the math (°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32 or °F = (°C × 1.8) + 32) I simply add/subtract 32 and then multiple/divide by 2. For me, it’s close enough. Similarly, the mmol calculation is simpler, but I woulld round the multiplier to 20, instead of using 18. If I required accuracy I would do it correctly, but most of the time, dealing in generalities is fine, and @Strat1117 / @jbowler solution is better, but I’d need it so infrequently I might not remember to use it.
