Mrs. Adamson is to take 2 tablespoons of a medication every 6 hours for 10 days. The pharmacy will have to dispense ________ for this prescription.
Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).
40 oz
2 tbsp every 6 hours = 4 times daily
4 × 2 tbsp = 8 tbsp per day × 10 days = 80 tbsp total medication
Convert to mL: 1 tbsp = 15 mL
1 tbsp : 15 mL = 80 tbsp : x
1 × x = 15 mL × 80
x = 1,200 mL
Convert mL to ounces:
1 oz = 30 mL
1 oz : 30 mL = x : 1,200 mL
1 × 1,200 = 30 × x
1,200 ÷ 30 = 30x ÷ 30
40 oz = x
