A doctor administer 1 ml of a 200 mg/ml dart to a 150 pound forgiving. what is the equivlant dose within mg/kg?
Answers:
2.94 mg / kg
1 ml x 200 mg/ml = 200 mg
150 lb/2.2kg/lb = 68.18 kg
200 mg/68.18kg = 2.93 mg/kg
Convert mg/ml to mg
200 mg/ml x 1 ml = 200 mg [notice ml cancels out]
then convert 150 lb --> kg
1 kg --> 2.2 pounds
? kg --> 150 lb
cross multiply to get 68.03 kg
The answer desires mg/kg so divide the mg by the kg
= 200/68.03= 2.94 mg/kg
