The order is for 40 mg o medicine. The bottle says 100 mg of medicine per 15 ml of liquid. How many milliliters should be given?

100mg/40mg=2.5mg
15ml/2.5mg=6

If this is the correct answer, I'm not quite sure how to set it up correctly, since that is part of the answer in my Quantitative assignment.

Thank you

The bottle has 100mg per 15ml...   We need 40 mg which is 2/5 of the 100 mg   You need to take 2/5 of the 15 ml to get 40 mg of medicine   (2/5)(15) = 6 = 6 ml   If you are using a 1 ml calibrated glass dropper you would have to fill it 6 times...  I would suggest the little cup.
