GPT 3.5
To find out how many tablets the nurse should administer, we need to divide the total amount of the drug ordered by the amount of drug in each tablet.
109.5 mg ÷ 18.25 mg = 6 tablets (rounded to the nearest whole number)
Therefore, the nurse should administer 6 tablets.
109.5 mg ÷ 18.25 mg = 6 tablets (rounded to the nearest whole number)
Therefore, the nurse should administer 6 tablets.
