Make practical sense of terms and definitions

How about these problems:


If the drug concentration is 5 mg/L, then how many  milligrams of drug would you have in each litre?
If the infusion rate is 10 ng per hour, then how many nanograms does the patient get each hour?
If your initial salary as a resident is 40 K/year, how many dollars will you receive each year?
(Please see answers below!)


Well, maybe the above questions are more complicated than you think. Look at the following video - I believe the lady in there is a former student of mine...! She eventually got her MD by marrying one!

Answers to problems:
(1) 5
(2) 10
(3) Zero (i.e. after taxes and paying off loans).


Have a good day!
