Active ingredient per dose: 4 × 10⁻³ liters

One bottle of the active ingredient: 2 liters

The number n of doses can be calculated using the formula:


n=\frac{\text{ Bottle capacity}}{\text{ Active ingredient per dose}}

Then, using the values above:


n=\frac{2\text{ liters}}{4\cdot10^(-3)\text{ liters}}=500\text{ doses}
