Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3.5 Grams
Step-by-step
set 2grams/60lbs equal to xgrams/105
x representing the amount of medicine needed for a 105lb child
Then you divide 60 by 105.
60/105=1.75
Now you multiply 2 by 1.75.
2 x 1.75 = 3.5
3.5 is your answer because 105 is 1.75 times more lbs than 60lbs
meaning you would need 1.75 times the amount of 2grams
to determine the value of x, which is 3.5grams
The correct answer is D.
Have a great day!
