A veterinarian prescribes Benadryl for a dog with allergies. The recommended dosage is 3 mg per kg per day to be given in two doses. If your golden retriever weighs 67 lbs., how much Benadryl should he get in each dose? Round to nearest milligram.

Each dose should be of 5.05 milligrams.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the present problem, it is necessary to first establish the equivalence between pounds and kilograms. Thus, 1 pound is equal to 0.453 kilograms. Therefore, the dog weighs about 30.35 kilograms (67 x 0.453), with which, since 3 milligrams must be applied for each kilogram of the animal's weight, 10.1 milligrams of Benadryl (30.35 / 3) should be applied.

Now, since Benadryl is applied in two doses, each of these doses should be 5.05 milligrams (10.1 / 2).

to determine the unit cost your would divide the total cost by the number sold.
