question 191 1 pts
the doctor asks you to give 20 mg of furosemide iv. the pharmacy bottle contains 25 mg/ml. how many ml will you draw up in the syringe?

Explanation:

Step1: Set up proportion

Let $x$ be the volume in ml. We have the proportion $\frac{25\ mg}{1\ ml}=\frac{20\ mg}{x\ ml}$.

Step2: Cross - multiply

$25x = 20\times1$.

Step3: Solve for $x$

$x=\frac{20}{25}= 0.8$ ml.

Answer:

0.8 ml
