When you don't seem to get any better, you eventually end up in the hospital. the doctor orders 120 mg of medicine to be given twice a day. the nurse comes in with 6 tablets and tells you that there are 30 mg in each tablet. is this the correct dosage? if not, how many tablets should you get?

It isn't the correct dosage, you should get 8 tablets.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, if the doctors orders 120 mg twice a day, it means that you need 240 mg of medicine. That is calculated as:

120 mg * 2 = 240 mg

Then if each tablet has 30 mg, the number of tablets that you should get is calculated as:

So, 240 mg of medicine are equivalents to 8 tablets.

8 tablets are different of 6 tablets, so the dosage given by the nurse is incorrect and you should get 8 tablets every day.
