First, let's find out how many 5/6 pound bags he can fill with one 2 pound bag.
2 ÷ 5/6
2 × 6/5
2.4
He can fill 2.4 bags with one 2 pound bag.
Now, we just need to multiply 2.4 by a number that will make it a whole number.
We'll use guess and check.
2.4 × 2 = 4.8
2.4 × 3 = 7.2
2.4 × 4 = 9.6
2.4 × 5 = 12
12 is a whole number.
This means that Chad needs to buy 5 of the 2 pound bags to fill 12 of the 5/6 pound bags, and he will have not peanuts leftover.

If an intravenous fluid is adjusted to deliver 15 mg of medication to a patient per hour, how many milligrams of medication are
adelina 88 [10]

Answer: 0.125 mg per half minute

Step-by-step explanation:

15mg per hour can be written as 15mg/h

To find out how many mg of medication are delivered per half minute you can convert from hour to minutes

There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so you can use the conversion factor (1h/60 min) and multiply the expression by it

15 mg/h (1h/60min) = 0.25 mg/min

But the question is per half minute so you have to multiply and divide the previous expression by 0.5 (To obtain 0.5 min in the denominator, which is half minute)

Then,

(0.25 mg/min ) (0.5/0.5) = 0.125 mg/ 0.5 min (0.125 mg per half minute)
