Answer:

(b)90mg/lb

Explanation:

The child can consume a maximum of 23 tablets with 80mg of acetaminophen, the total acetaminophen ingest is:

23*80=1840mg

This value is for 8 hours, 8 hours is 1/3 of one day. This means that the dose that can be consumed in 24 hours is 3 times 1840mg.

1840*3=5520mg

To obtain the maximum allowable dose in mg per pound of body weight, divide this last value by the weight of the child in pounds.

Conversion of units: 28Kg(\frac{2.20lb}{1Kg} )=61.6lb

\frac{5520}{61.6} =89.61\approx90mg/lb
