Question

A patient weights 65 kg. The patient is scheduled to receive 80 mg/kg. How many mg should the patient receive?

Answer 1

Answer:

5200 mg

Explanation:

You multiply 65 kg times the amount the patient is scheduled to receive to get 5200 mg. That is the dosage that the patient should receive.

Answer 2

I am pretty sure the answer is 5200mg. What I did was multiplied the patients weight by the amount of medicine given per kg to find the amount of 5200mg as the dosage. Hope this helps you out!
