Question

A physician prescribes a treatment in which a patient takes 2 teaspoons of a medication every 6 hours for 5 days. According to the prescription, how many teaspoons of the medication should the patient take in a 24-hour period?

  1. 4
  2. 6
  3. 8
  4. 40

hintHint:

Hint:
This is a simple problem that asks the number of teaspoons of medication to be taken. We are given that the patient takes 2 teaspoons of the medication every 6 hours for 5 days. We need to find the medication taken within 24 hours.

The correct answer is: 8


    The patient takes 2 teaspoons of medicine every 6 hours.
    We can say,
    Within 24 hours, the patient has to take the medicine  24 over 6 equals 4 times
    Each time, he takes 2 tablespoons of the medicine.
    The total number of teaspoons he takes in 24-hour period = 4 cross times 2
    = 8
    Thus, the correct option is C)

    Note:
    It may confuse some students but the fact that the medication needs to be taken for 5 days is not necessary to solve this question.

    If 6 • 2k = 36  , what is the value of 4 - 2k ?

    Note:
    Here, first we divide by 6 and then again divide by 2. We could also have multiplied 6 and 2 to get 12 and then divide the equation throughout by 12. We can divide both sides by any number except 0. A fraction with 0 as denominator is not defined.

    Segments OA and OB are radii of the semicircle above. Arc  AB has length 3π and OA = 5. What is the value of x ?

    A semicircle is formed when a lining passing through the center touches the circle's two ends. As a result of joining two semicircles, we get a circular shape.
    A circle is a collection of points equidistant from the circle's center. A radius is a common distance between the center of a circle and its point.
    ¶Area of a semicircle = 1/2 (π r2)
    where r is the radius.
    The value is 3.14 or 22/7.
