Answer to Question 1

3

Rationale 1: Pints/week = 1 pint/500 mL x 360 mL/1 can x 3 cans/1 day x 7 days/1 week. Multiply the numerators (1 x 360 x 3 x 7 = 7560). Multiply the denominators (500 x 1 x 1 x 1= 500). 7560/500 = 15.12 (12/100 = 3/25) = 15 3/25

Answer to Question 2

2

Rationale 1: T of liquid preparation = 1 T/15 mL x 1000 mL/1 L x 0.12 L/1. Multiply the numerators (1 x 1000 x 0.12 = 120). Multiply the denominators (15 mL x 1 x 1 = 15). 120/15 = 8 T.
