Answer : The amount of codeine in one teaspoonful is, 30 mg
Explanation : Given,
Amount of codeine per fluid ounce = 60 mg
Now we have to determine the amount of codeine present in one teaspoonful.
As we know that:
1 teaspoonful = 0.5 fluid ounce
As, the amount of codeine per fluid ounce = 60 mg
So, the amount of codeine 0.5 fluid ounce = [tex]\frac{0.5}{1}\times 60mg=30mg[/tex]
Thus, the amount of codeine in one teaspoonful is, 30 mg
