Question

If 35 gms of pure drug are contained in 150 mls, how many grams are contained in 75 mls?

Answer 1

Answer:

17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of "pure drug" to liquid is 35:150

Therefore to evaluate for 75 mls we get the ratio 75/2150 or simply 1/2

we can then multiply 35 by the ratio 1/2

35/2=17.5

State the answer

In 75 mls there are 17.5 grams of pure drug

Answer 2

The amount of the pure drug in 75 ml will be 17.5 grams.

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a collection of ordered integers a and b represented as a/b, with b never equaling zero. A proportionate expression is one in which two items are equal.

The ratio of the two proportional items will remain the same.

The amount of the drug is directly proportional to the contained liquid.

If 35 gms of the pure drug are contained in 150 ml.

Then the amount of the pure drug in 1 ml will be

⇒ 35 / 150

⇒ 0.2333 grams per ml

Then the amount of the pure drug in 75 ml will be

⇒ 0.2333 x 75

⇒ 17.5 grams

The amount of the pure drug in 75 ml will be 17.5 grams.
