Answer:
31 (i.e 3 tens and 1 unit)
Step-by-step explanation:
217 can be split up as,
2 hundreds, 1 tens, and 7 units.
186 can be split up as,
1 hundred, 8 tens and 6 units
If we solve straight we'll have
(2-1)hundreds + (1-8)tens + (7-6)units.
(1-8)tens will give a negative value, complicating the operation.
To make our operation easier we can use the fact that 1 hundred is equal to 10 ten to further split the 217, and it becomes
1 hundred, 11 tens and 7 units.
The operation becomes
(1-1)hundreds + (11 - 8)tens + (7-6)units
= 0 hundred + 3tens + 1 unit
= 3 tens + 1unit
= (3 x 10) + 1 = 31
Answer:
800 mg
Step-by-step explanation:
As the excerpt states that the client weights 176 pounds and is to receive cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) 50 mg/kg, we have to convert 176 pounds to kg:
1 kg → 2.20 pounds
x ← 176 pounds
x= (176 pounds * 1 kg)/2.20 pounds= 80 kg
Now, we have to determine the total amount of cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) that the client has to receive:
50 mg/kg
For 80 kg: 80 kg *50 mg/kg= 4,000 mg
As the dose is divided over 5 days:
4,000 mg / 5= 800 mg
The client will receive 800 mg of cyclophosphamide each day.
