A nurse must give
1
12
milligram of a drug for each kilogram of patient weight. If Mr. Krisanda weighs (or has a mass of)
60 kilograms, find the amount of the drug Mr. Krisanda should be given.
1/12 mg?
1/12 * 60 = ?
An insulated window for a house is made up of two pieces of glass, each
1
6
-inch thick, with a
1-inch space between them. What is the total thickness of this window?
Yes, 5.
1/6 + 1/6 + 1 = ?
To find the amount of the drug Mr. Krisanda should be given, we can use the formula:
Amount of drug = Weight of the patient * Dose per kilogram
Given that Mr. Krisanda weighs 60 kilograms and the dose per kilogram is 12 milligrams, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Amount of drug = 60 kg * 12 mg/kg
Now, multiply the weight (60 kg) by the dose per kilogram (12 mg/kg):
Amount of drug = 720 mg
Therefore, Mr. Krisanda should be given 720 milligrams of the drug.
