Answer key: A1C worksheet

  1. 1. Matching A1C: 4.8 %

    1. Run the A1C formula backward: add 46.7 to the average glucose, then divide by 28.7

      (90+46.7)28.7=4.7631 %
    2. Change A1C from percent to mmol/mol, the unit many labs outside the US use: subtract 2.152, then divide by 0.09148

      (4.7631−2.152)0.09148=28.54 mmol/mol
  2. 2. Matching A1C: 9 %

    1. Run the A1C formula backward: add 46.7 to the average glucose, then divide by 28.7

      (212+46.7)28.7=9.0139 %
    2. Change A1C from percent to mmol/mol, the unit many labs outside the US use: subtract 2.152, then divide by 0.09148

      (9.0139−2.152)0.09148=75.01 mmol/mol
  3. 3. Matching A1C: 5.7 %

    1. Run the A1C formula backward: add 46.7 to the average glucose, then divide by 28.7

      (117+46.7)28.7=5.7038 %
    2. Change A1C from percent to mmol/mol, the unit many labs outside the US use: subtract 2.152, then divide by 0.09148

      (5.7038−2.152)0.09148=38.83 mmol/mol
  4. 4. Matching A1C: 7.6 %

    1. Run the A1C formula backward: add 46.7 to the average glucose, then divide by 28.7

      (170+46.7)28.7=7.5505 %
    2. Change A1C from percent to mmol/mol, the unit many labs outside the US use: subtract 2.152, then divide by 0.09148

      (7.5505−2.152)0.09148=59.01 mmol/mol
  5. 5. Estimated average glucose (eAG): 298 mg/dL

    1. Use the ADAG formula: multiply the A1C percent by 28.7, then subtract 46.7. That gives average glucose in mg/dL

      28.7×12−46.7=297.7 mg/dL
    2. Change mg/dL to mmol/L by dividing by 18.0156, the mg/dL in 1 mmol/L of glucose

      297.7 mg/dL18.0156=16.525 mmol/L
    3. Change A1C from percent to mmol/mol, the unit many labs outside the US use: subtract 2.152, then divide by 0.09148

      (12−2.152)0.09148=107.65 mmol/mol
  6. 6. Estimated average glucose (eAG): 154 mg/dL

    1. Use the ADAG formula: multiply the A1C percent by 28.7, then subtract 46.7. That gives average glucose in mg/dL

      28.7×7−46.7=154.2 mg/dL
