Answer 1

When sentences don't start with capital letters and don't end with some kind of punctuation, we often can't tell what is going on because all of the sentences run together. Rephrase if you want some help.

Answer 2

A dose of asprin of 5.0mg per kilogram of body weight has been perscribed to reduce the fever of an infant weighing 8.0 pounds. One pound is 453.59g. What is the number of milligrams of asprin that should be administered

Answer 3

Convert 8.0 lbs to grams.
8.0 x 453.59 = ?? grams.
Convert ?? grams to kg (Divide by 1000).
Then 5.0 mg x ??kg = mg aspirin to be used. Check my thinking.
