Just checking to make sure my math is right.

If Robitussin Maximum Strength has 15 mg dextromethorphan/tbsp(5ml) then there is a total of 711 MG in a 237 mL bottle, right?


Thanks.

umm looks close enough to me. i wasn't always the best in math but i would say it looks correct.

good job you get an A+ on your homework

Assuming that Mg is the same as mg and mL the same as ml.

{First, get your conventions right}

You would then be asking if 711mg is the amount of DXM in a 237ml bottle that has a concentration of 15mg/5ml, or 3mg/ml

{I�m not even going to bother checking if 1 tbsp =5ml}

So that would be [no, don�t ask me why I�m bothering when I�m closing it anyway. Oh, I know: I like math and have little patience with some things � not that the two are related, here�.]

So, then: 237ml X 3mg/ml = (The ml�s cancel each other out) 711mg

There, answer your question?


No, don�t bother answering: You can�t}
