So, basically the question is asking what is the dose of a medication that is 2.5mg/kg.

Assuming that the child does NOT weigh 7171lbs but 71lbs; which would equal around 32kg (71 x 0.45).

So this child would have 2.5mg per 32kg. 32kg x 2.5= 80mg of medication.

77julia77 [94]
In order for pests to feel comfortable and survive well in a food facility they need access to food, water, and shelter.
If they have enough food and water, pests can survive well anywhere, because they will have basic resources for survival. And also, if they have a secure shelter where they can feel safe, their chances or survival escalate.
