The client is to receive cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) 50 mg/kg intravenously in divided doses over 5 days. The client weighs 176 pounds. How many mg of cyclophosphamide will the client receive each day? Enter the correct number ONLY.

800 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

As the excerpt states that the client weights 176 pounds and is to receive cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) 50 mg/kg, we have to convert 176 pounds to kg:

1 kg → 2.20 pounds

  x   ←  176 pounds

x= (176 pounds * 1 kg)/2.20 pounds= 80 kg

Now, we have to determine the total amount of cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) that the client has to receive:

50 mg/kg

For 80 kg: 80 kg *50 mg/kg= 4,000  mg

As the dose is divided over 5 days:

4,000 mg / 5= 800 mg

The client will receive 800 mg of cyclophosphamide each day.

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )

hope this !
