Answer:the usual dosage would be

54.55 milligrams.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Ibuprofen is given for fever to children 6 months of age up to 2 years, the usual dose is 5 milligrams (mg) per kilogram (kg) of body weight when the fever is under 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit. This means that the usual dose for a 18 month old child would be 5 milligrams (mg) per kilogram (kg) of body weight. Since the weight of the child is 24 pounds, we would covert 24 pounds to kilogram.

2.2 pounds = 1 kg

24 pounds = 24/2.2 = 10.91 kg

Therefore, the dosage would be

5 × 10.91 = 54.55 milligrams

Half of all the integers are ... all of the positive "counting numbers".

The total number is infinite, so I can't list them here.  But if you start at '1 '
and count, you can never name <em>ALL</em> of them, but you can name <em>as many</em>
of them as you want to.
