Each time he uses it he must "prime" it by wasting 2 units. He then injects 12 units of insulin into his arm. He injects 13 units the next day. Of course, he must prime it again before every use.

How many insulin pens must this teacher go through until the doses of insulin comes out evenly on that pen? Put another way, there is no insulin left in the pen…arrow_forward
