Each tablet is 250 milligrams. Your doctor wants you to take 3 grams (g) per day

We know ,

1 gram = 1000 milligrams

250 milligrams makes 1 tablet

so 1000 milligrams makes how many tablets

$\frac{1000}{250}$ = 4 tablets

1000 milligrams makes 4 tablets. That is 1 gram = 4 tablets

1 gram = 4 tablets

3 grams = 3 * 4 = 12 tablets

So you need to take 12 tablets per day.
