An HbA1c target of less than 7% corresponds to about how many mmol/mol?

42 mmol/mol 53 mmol/mol 63 mmol/mol 70 mmol/mol

Correct Answer:

53 mmol/mol

Explanation:

The key idea is how HbA1c targets written as a percentage translate to the mmol/mol units labs use. There’s a standard conversion: 6% is about 42 mmol/mol, 7% is about 53 mmol/mol, and 8% is about 64–65 mmol/mol. So a target of under 7% corresponds to roughly 53 mmol/mol. That’s why the best match is 53 mmol/mol. The other numbers align with different HbA1c ranges—around 42 mmol/mol would be a 6% level, and 63–70 mmol/mol fall in the 8–9% range, not the <7% target.
