An antitussive product contains 0.05g of dextromethorphan in each teaspoonful dose. How many milligrams of dextromethorphan would be contained in a 4 ounce bottle?
Answer provided by our tutors
usually one teaspoon = 1/6 oz
1/6 oz got 0.05g
1 oz got (0.05)(6) = 0.3 g
4 oz bottle = 4(0.3) = 1.2 g
1.2g = 1200 mg
1200 mg of dextromethorphan would be contained in a 4 ounce bottle
