Question

Benzocaine topical is prescribed to decrease pain or discomfort caused by minor skin irritations, sunburn, teething pain, and so forth. If you diluted 145ml of a 18% benzocaine lotion to 6%, how much could you produce ?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The amount of benz is the same in both solutions

145 ( .18) = x (.06)

x = 145(.18)/(.06) =435 ml
