Problem |
A pharmaceutical company needs to fill 5,000 capsules, each containing 150 mg of a particular medicine. How many grams of the medicine, in total, will they need? |
|
2 |
Step |
First, find the total weight in milligrams: |
\$"Total weight" = 5,000 "capsules" times (150 "mg")/("capsule")\$ |
3 |
Step |
After simplification we get |
Total weight = 750,000 mg |
4 |
Step |
To convert milligrams to grams |
1 g = 1000 mg |
5 |
Step |
\$750,000"mg" times (0.001"g")/"mg" = 750"g"\$ |
|
6 |
Step |
Therefore, the pharmaceutical company will need 750 grams of the medicine in total to fill 5,000 capsules. |
