Rationale: To determine how many 200 mcg tablets of colchicine can be prepared from 2 grams of colchicine, first convert both figures into milligrams. 200 micrograms = 0.2 milligrams, and 2 grams = 2,000 milligrams. Then, divide 2,000 mg by 0.2 mg. Therefore, 10,000 tablets of colchicine 200 mcg can be prepared from 2g of the drug.
