Question

If you are administering an insulin dose of 60.0mg from a bottle at a concentration of 10.0mg/mL , how many milliliters of the solution do you need to give the patient?

Answer 1

Answer=60mg/(10mg/mL)
=6mL

We know to divide because of the units:
We want mL, we have mg and mg/mL
So:
\[\frac{mg}{\frac{mg}{mL}}=\frac{mL\times mg}{mg}=mL\]
