A nurse is preparing to administer methylprednisolone acetate 60 mg IM weekly. Methylprednisolone acetate suspension for injection 80 mg/mL is available. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? Round the answer to the nearest hundredth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.
Correct Answer: 0.75
