<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 1.187 tablets each time (twice a day)

<h2>Why?</h2>

From the statement we know that 0.25 tablet (1/4) should be taken twice a day per 20 kg, it makes 0.5 table a day, per 20 kg.

First, we need to convert the given weight unit (pounds) to kg:

1 Pound=0.45Kg

So,

211Pounds*\frac{0.45Kg}{1Pound}= 94.95Kg=95Kg

A weight of 95 Kg, means 4.75 times more than the given information of 0.5 table a day, per 20 Kg

\frac{95Kg}{20Kg}=4.75

Then,

4.75*(0.5)=2.375

So,

For a weight of 95 Kg,  2.375  tablets should be taken a day, or 1.187  tablets each time.

Have a nice day!
