Answer #1

Carbohydrates in 2 cups corn flakes = 2 × 23.5 =47 g

Carbohydrates in 8 ounce of whole milk = 8 × 1.28 = 10.24g

Carbohydrates in 4 0unce orange juice = 4 × 3.2 = 12.8g

Total carbs in the food = 70.04 g

breakfast dose of rapid-acting insulin is 1:10.

The dose of rapid insulin needed = 70.04/10 = 7 units
