Question

How many tablets can be made from 5 mg from0.5 kg of medicine
Should I divide?

Answer 1

Yes you should divide! As we have to make smaller tablets from one bigger tablet.

We can move from big to small by division. (If we wan to go from small to big then we multiply)

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

1kg=1000gram

1gram=1000mg

So 1kg=1000×1000 mg =1000000mg

0.5kg or1/2 kg=1000000/2=500000mg

So total 5mg tablets tht can be made=

500000÷5=250000 ans
