So we have the 3 milligrams of this drug z per pound is what is supposed to be dosed, and the child weighs 70 kilograms.
00:10
So the first thing we need to do is change that child's weight into pounds.
00:17
And we know that, or we can look up, that 1 kilogram is equivalent to 2 .20462 pounds.
00:28
And so that will give us that calculation.
00:30
So 70 times 2 .20462 is a pretty big child, 154 .3234 pounds.
00:43
So that child needs to have 3 milligrams of that per pound.
00:51
So let's find out how many milligrams the child needs.
00:53
So 3 milligrams of z per 1 pound, and we have 154 .3234 pound child.
01:05
So this is going to calculate how many milligrams we need, so times 3.
01:10
And that is 462 .9702 milligrams...
