If a drug contains 25 mg of an expectorant per tablespoon, how much expectorant would be in a quart?

1500 mg
1550 mg
1600 mg
1650 mg

The correct answer is: 1600 mg

To determine how much expectorant is in a quart when each tablespoon contains 25 mg, it's essential to know the number of tablespoons in a quart. There are 64 tablespoons in a quart, since one quart equals 32 ounces and there are 2 tablespoons in one ounce (32 ounces x 2 tablespoons/ounce = 64 tablespoons). Next, to find the total amount of expectorant in a quart, multiply the amount of expectorant per tablespoon by the number of tablespoons in a quart: 25 mg/tablespoon × 64 tablespoons = 1600 mg. Thus, the total amount of expectorant in a quart is 1600 mg, making this the correct answer.
