Question

If an aspirin tablet contains 325 mg aspirin, how many grams of aspirin does it contain?

Answer 1

Answer : The mass of aspirin in grams is, 0.325 grams.

Explanation :

As we are given that mass of aspirin tablet is, 325 mg. Now we have to determine the mass of aspirin in grams.

Conversion used from milligram to gram is:

1 mg = 0.001 g

As, 1 mg of mass of aspirin = 0.001 g of aspirin

So, 325 mg of mass of aspirin =
`(325mg)/(1mg)* 0.001g=0.325g` of aspirin

Thus, the mass of aspirin in grams is, 0.325 grams.
