One tablet contains 0.025 milligram of magnesium. How many milligrams of magnesium are there in 500 tablets?

A. 10
B. 10.5
C. 12.5
D. 15

Answer 1

all you have to do here is multiply what one tablet has times 500 tablets sooo
here is the math
0.025 x 500 = 12.5
so that means there is 12.5 milligrams of magnesium in 500 tablets ;)

Answer 2

1tablet=0.025ml
1 times 500=500
multiply both sides by 500
500 tablets=500 times 0.025ml
500 tables=12.5ml

answer is C
