Question

If you take 2 1/2 tablets of meds 3 times a day for 10 days, how many tablets in total have you taken?

I got 3/4 of the problem worked out! I got for the answer 50 total. Correct or incorrect? Opinions please.

Answer 1

This is how I solved it.
2.5 multiplied by 3 is 7.5, which equals how many she takes a day.
Then I multiplied 7.5 by 10 = 75. I did that because the meds are taken for 10 days.
Also if you added 7.5 ten times is also 75.

So my final answer is that 75 tablets have been taken in total.
