Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

One inch is equal to **2.54 centimeters**²³⁴. To convert inches to centimeters, you can multiply the value in inches by 2.54. For example, 2.54 centimeters x 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters.

A. 390 mg B. 27 mg C. 1560 mg D. 260 mg

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

The amount of ampicillin in one dose is 390 mg.

This answer is correct because it is based on a series of multiplication and division calculations. The nurse should follow these steps to determine the amount of ampicillin in one dose:

1) Multiply the prescribed dose per kilogram per day by the child's weight in kilograms to get the total dose per day in milligrams, as follows:

150 mg/kg/day x 10.4 kg = 1560 mg/day

Therefore, the child needs 1560 mg of ampicillin per day.

2) Divide the total dose per day by the number of doses per day to get the amount of each dose in milligrams, as follows:

1560 mg/day / 4 doses/day = 390 mg/dose

Therefore, the amount of ampicillin in one dose is 390 mg.
