Answer:

Varies - possibly not enough information

Step-by-step explanation:

How many doses per day?

Do you only need to know the amount of oz. for "today"?

Does this need to be expressed in decimal form?

If the patient is ordered to take 2- 2/3 oz. per day, you have your answer.

Decimal form: 2-2/3 = 8/3 = 2.667 oz.
