Answer:
It will take 3 hours 46 minutes and 8 seconds to use 375 mg of ibrufen.
Step-by-step explanation:
An adult takes 400 mg of ibuprofen. Two hours later, there is 201.6 mg of
ibuprofen left in the persons system
This means that in 2 hours time
400- 201.6= 198.4 mg was used up.
We need only 25 mg in the system
so 400- 25= 375 mg time is needed
time mg
2 hour 198.4
x 375
Using the cross product rule
x= 375*2/198.4
x= 3.780 hrs
Which means 3 hours and (0.78* 60)= 46.8 minutes.
It will take 3 hours 46 minutes and 8 seconds to use 375 mg of ibrufen.
