Answer:
the trainee calculated the incorrect amount
It should be 0.5 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
The physician orders penicillin 500,000 units for a patient while the concentration of the drug you have is 1,000,000 units/ 1mL. It's clear that 1mL drug is too much for the patient since 1,000,000 units are higher than 500,000 units.
The amount of penicillin in 1.5 mL will be definitely higher than 1,000,000 units, so it must be a lot higher than the physician's orders. We can roughly guess that the trainee draws an incorrect amount.
To calculate the exact volume you need, you have to divide the amount of the drug you need with the concentration of the drug. The calculation will be:
the volume needed = amount of the drug you need/ concentration of the drug
volume needed = 500,000 units / (1,000,000 units/ 1mL)= 1/2 mL = 0.5 mL
Answer:
One way to find the least common multiple of two numbers is to first list the prime factors of each number. Then multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number. If the same factor occurs more than once in both numbers, you multiply the factor the greatest number of times it occurs.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
My approach was to draw out the probabilities, since we have 3 children, and we are looking for 2 boys and 1 girl, the probabilities can be Boy-Boy-Girl, Boy-Girl-Boy, and Girl-Boy-Boy. So a 2/3 chance if you think about it, your answer 2/3 can't be correct. If we assume that boys and girls are born with equal probability, then the probability to have two girls (and one boy) should be the same as the probability to have two boys and one girl. So you would have two cases with probability 2/3, giving an impossible 4/3 probability for both cases. Also, your list "Boy-Boy-Girl, Boy-Girl-Boy, and Girl-Boy-Boy" seems strange. All of those are 2 boys and 1 girl, so based on that list, you should get a 100 percent chance. But what about Boy-Girl-Girl, or Girl-Girl-Girl? You get 2/3 if you assume that adjacencies in the (ordered) list are important, i.e., "2 boys and a girl" means that the girl was not born between the boys.
