a) Daily dose for a man who weighs 195 pounds is 30 mg.

b)Here 422.5 mg is less than 600mg. Then, He doesn't receive proper dosage.

What is proportional ?

  Any relationship that always has the same ratio is referred to be proportionality. For instance, the average number of apples per tree determines the proportionality between the quantity of apples in a crop and the number of trees in the orchard.

Here , The adult daily dosage for a certain medicine is 260 mg

=> \frac{40}{260} = \frac{195}{x}

=>  x = \frac{260*195}{40}

=> x =1267.5  mg.

a) Daily dose for a man who weighs 195 pounds is 30 mg.

b) Here for 24 hours = 1267.5 then,

=>  8 hours = x

=> x = \frac{1267.5*8}{24}

=> x = 422.5 mg.

Here 422.5 mg is less than 600mg. Then, He does'nt receive proper dosage.

ollegr [7]

The cups of milk Laura gave to Maria is 19/12 cups is 19/12 cups

<h3>How to calculate fraction</h3>

  • Total cups of milk to share = 2 1/4 cups

  • Laura = x

  • Maria = 2/3 cups

Total = Laura + Maria

2 1/4 = x + 2/3

2 1/4 - 2/3 = x

9/4 - 2/3 = x

(27-8) / 12 = x

19/12 = x

= 1 7/12

Therefore, the cups of milk Laura gave to Maria is 19/12 cups
