Answer to Question 1

1.4 - 1.7 g/kg = 95 to 116

Answer to Question 2

I would inform Mr. F that the cholesterol test kits in the local stores are good for screening purposes but caution him about using them to make the final diagnosis. I would also inform him that while cholesterol levels are important, the LDL/HDL ratio is of greater value.
