Answer to Question 1

2

Rationale 1: T/dose = 1 T/15 mL x 30 mL/1. Multiply the numerators (1 x 30 = 30). Multiply the denominators (15 x 1 = 15). 30/15 = 2 T per dose.

Answer to Question 2

2

Rationale 1: L/day = 1 L/1000 mL x 30 mL/1 ounce x 8 ounces/1 cup x 14 cups/1 day. Multiply the numerators (1 x 30 x 8 x 14 = 3360). Multiply the denominators (1000 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 1000). 3360/1000 = 3.36 L.
