Albuterol 1.2mg PO. T.I. D. Is ordered for a child weighing 27lb. The recommended dosage is 0.3mg/kg. Available:2mg/5mL. How much of the solution is needed for each dose?And per day

The solution required per dosage is 3 mL and 9.175 mL of solution is required for the recommended dosage in a day.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the weight of the child is given as 27 lbs. Converting it to kgs as

1 kg =2.2042 lb

So 27 lbs=27/2.2042 kg

The weight of the kid in kg is 12.247 kg.

As the recommended dosage is 0.3 mg/kg/hour so for the weight of the kid the recommended dosage for the day is given as

Recommended dosage=0.3*12.247 =3.67 mg per day

As the concentration is given as 2 mg/5mL

So for each dose the solution is found as

Solution per dose is as Dose Value/Concentration=1.2/(2/5)=3 mL

So the solution required per dosage is 3 mL

Now for the solution required per day is given as

Solution per day is as =Dose Value/Concentration=3.67/(2/5)=9.175 mL

So 9.175 mL of solution is required for the recommended dosage in a day.

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
