Question

Diabetes is a serious disease that can affect anyone and requires lifelong monitoring. It is estimated that 422 million people worldwide are diabetic, a number four times higher than that registered 40 years ago, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The fasting blood glucose reference values are:

>Normal fasting glucose: less than 99 mg / dL;
>Altered fasting glucose: between 100 mg / dL and 125 mg / dL;
>Diabetes: equal to or greater than 126 mg / dL;
>Low fasting glycemia or hypoglycemia: equal to or less than 70 mg / dL.

Assuming that a study was carried out with 120 patients, the mean fasting blood glucose found, by UV-Vis spectrophotometry, was 88 mg / dL, the standard deviation was 30 mg / dL, which is the fraction (%) of patients who have pre-diabetes, blood glucose between 100 and 125 mg / dL?
