Question

How many mL of medication are needed to last 10 days if the dose of medication is 2.5 tsp TID (three times a day)?

Answer 1

Answer:

369.7 mL of medication

Step-by-step explanation:

How many mL of medication are needed to last 10 days if the dose of medication is 2.5 tsp TID (three times a day)?

From the above question,

The dosage of the medication =

2.5 tsp 3 times a day

= 2.5 × 3 = 7.5 tsp per day.

Since

1 day = 7.5 tsp

10 days = x tsp

Cross Multiply

x = 10 × 7.5 tsp

x = 75 tsp of medication for 10 days.

Step 2

It is important to note that:

1 tsp = 4.929 mL

75 tsp = x mL

Cross Multiply

x = 75 × 4.929 mL

x = 369.669 mL of medication

Approximately = 369.7 mL of medication
