Your doctor prescribes you to take 400 milligrams of medicine every 8 hours. How many ounces of medicine do you take in a day?

First, calculate how many mg you take in a day. 24/8=3, and 3 400=1200, so assuming you don't miss any, you would take 1200 milligrams in a day. You can change this to 1.2 grams. The conversion rate from grams to ounces is about .035, so you would get 1.2 .035. That makes .07*.6, which is 42 with 3 decimal points to the left. That's about .042 ounces.

To calculate the daily intake of medicine:
Calculate the number of doses taken in a day: 24 hours / 8 hours = 3 doses.
Calculate the total daily intake: 3 doses * 400mg = 1200mg.
Convert 1200mg to ounces: 1200mg * 0.00003527396 = 0.04233 ounces.
