Is what is supposed to be with this question

kellie, no, they mix around the answers. I go to JMHS too.

To determine the number of "hits" of nicotine a person gets to the brain daily, we need to calculate the amount of nicotine in a pack of cigarettes and divide it by the amount of nicotine in a single "hit."

The average nicotine content in a pack of cigarettes is around 20 milligrams (mg), and the average nicotine content in a single "hit" from a cigarette is approximately 1 mg.

To find the number of "hits" in a pack, we divide the nicotine content in a pack by the nicotine content in a single "hit":

Number of hits = Nicotine content in a pack / Nicotine content in a single hit

Number of hits = 20 mg / 1 mg

Number of hits = 20

Therefore, a person who smokes about 1 pack daily gets 20 "hits" of nicotine to the brain each day.

So, the correct answer to the question is not one of the provided options.
