Certainly! Let's convert 44,120 milligrams per day into the equivalent rate in centigrams per day and centigrams per week.
1. Conversion of Milligrams to Centigrams:
- To convert milligrams to centigrams, we need to know the conversion factor. There are 0.1 centigrams in every milligram. So, to change from milligrams to centigrams, we multiply by 0.1.
- Given that we start with 44,120 milligrams per day:
[tex]\( 44,120 \text{ milligrams} \times 0.1 = 4,412 \text{ centigrams per day} \)[/tex]
2. Conversion of Days to Weeks:
- There are 7 days in a week. To find out how many centigrams we have per week, we need to multiply the daily rate by 7.
- Given the daily rate in centigrams:
[tex]\( 4,412 \text{ centigrams per day} \times 7 \text{ days} = 30,884 \text{ centigrams per week} \)[/tex]
Therefore, the equivalent rates are:
- 4,412 centigrams per day
- 30,884 centigrams per week
These calculations provide the conversion from 44,120 milligrams per day to centigrams per day and centigrams per week.
