Answer:

Number of tablet needed = 1 tablet

Explanation:

Given:

Amount of calcium per day needed = 3 gram

Amount of calcium in a tablet = 300 mg

Find:

Number of tablet needed

Computation:

Number of tablet needed = Amount of calcium per day needed / Amount of calcium in a tablet

Number of tablet needed = 3gram / 300 milligram

Number of tablet needed = 300 milligram / 300 milligram

Number of tablet needed = 1 tablet
