A person weighs 150.0 lb, and the correct dosage of a drug is given as 1.50 mg per kilogram of body weight. How many milligrams
Rama09 [41]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of drug that must be given is 102.3 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Weight of the person = 150.0 lb

Converting this weight into kilograms, we use the conversion factor:

1 kg = 2.20 lb

So, 150.0lb\times (\frac{1kg}{2.20lb})=68.2kg

Applying unitary method:

For 1 kg of body weight, the correct dosage of the drug is 1.50 mg

So, for 68.2 kg of body weight, the correct dosage of the drug will be \frac{1.50mg}{1kg}\times 68.2kg=102.3mg

Hence, the amount of drug that must be given is 102.3 grams
