Question

If an aspirin tablet contains 325 mg aspirin, how many grams of aspirin does it contain?

Answer 1

Answer:

w = 0.325 g aspirin does it contain

Explanation:

• 1 mg = 0.001 g

⇒ w =325 mg aspirin * ( 0.001g / mg)

⇒ w = 0.325 g aspirin

Answer 2

Answer : The mass of aspirin in grams is, 0.325 grams.

Explanation :

As we are given that mass of aspirin tablet is, 325 mg. Now we have to determine the mass of aspirin in grams.

Conversion used from milligram to gram is:

1 mg = 0.001 g

As, 1 mg of mass of aspirin = 0.001 g of aspirin

So, 325 mg of mass of aspirin = $\frac{325mg}{1mg}\times 0.001g=0.325g$ of aspirin

Thus, the mass of aspirin in grams is, 0.325 grams.
