A typical chest X-ray exposes a patient to an effective dose of 0.09 mSv. How many Rad is this?

Here we're told a typical chest x-ray exposes a patient to an effective dose of 0.09 milli SV. How many rads is this? Alright. So we're gonna say here we have 0.09 milli s v. And all we have to know is the conversion factor here, is that for every 1 rad, we have 10 milli SV. Here, milli SVs cancel out, and now we're gonna have rads. So this comes out to be 0.009 rads. So this would be our final answer.
