    Calculation

    A nurse is caring for a client ordered penicillin G benzathine 300,000 units for one dose. The drug comes in a suspension for injection 600,000 units/mL. How many milliliters would be administered? (Use leading zero if it applies, round to the tenth place. Do not use trailing zero) mL

    mL

    Explanation & Rationale

    Step 1 is 300,000 units÷ (600,000 units÷ 1 mL). Step 2 is 300,000 units÷ 600,000 units/mL. Step 3 is 0.5 mL. The final calculated answer is 0.5 mL.
