Please solve the conversion:
850mcg= how many mg? Show all work
To convert micrograms (mcg) to milligrams (mg), you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 micrograms in a milligram.
850 mcg ÷ 1000 = 0.85 mg
Therefore, 850 mcg is equal to 0.85 mg.
To convert micrograms (mcg) to milligrams (mg), we need to use the conversion factor 1 mg = 1000 mcg.
Given that 850 mcg is the initial value, we can set up the conversion factor as follows:
850 mcg × (1 mg/1000 mcg)
The mcg units cancel out, and we are left with:
850 × 1/1000 mg
Simplifying the expression gives us:
850/1000 mg
Dividing 850 by 1000:
0.85 mg
Therefore, 850 mcg is equal to 0.85 mg.
