To convert pounds to kilograms, we divide by 2.205.
76 lb ÷ 2.205 lb/kg = 34.49 kg
Therefore, Imani should receive:
200 mg/kg x 34.49 kg = 6,898 mg
Or, rounded to the nearest hundredth:
6,900 mg
76 lb ÷ 2.205 lb/kg = 34.49 kg
Therefore, Imani should receive:
200 mg/kg x 34.49 kg = 6,898 mg
Or, rounded to the nearest hundredth:
6,900 mg
