mg measure mass or weight. ml measure volume.
To determine how many milliliters (ml) to give for a 2 mg dose when 5 mg equals 1 ml, you can set up a simple ratio. 5 mg is to 1 ml as 2 mg is to x ml. Solving for x, you get: 5/1 = 2/x. Cross multiplying gives you 5x = 2, and dividing by 5 on both sides gives you x = 2/5 or 0.4 ml. Therefore, you would need to give 0.4 ml for a 2 mg dose.
To make 50 ml of a solution with a concentration of 500 mg per 5 ml, you would need to calculate the total amount needed: 50 ml / 5 ml = 10 units of 5 ml that are needed. Since each unit of 5 ml requires 500 mg, you would need 10 units x 500 mg = 5000 mg. To find out how many 250 mg tablets are needed to make 5000 mg, you would divide 5000 mg by 250 mg per tablet, which equals 20 tablets needed.
50mg ---> 5ml ?mg -----> 100ml Use the cross mutliplication method to find ? 50 x 100 / 5 = ? ? = 1000mg Answer is 2 x 500mg tablets
You have to give 3 times 5 mg = 15 mg therefore you have to give 3 times 2 ml = 6 ml (15 mg = 6 ml of whatever that bottle contains).

This is not a valid conversion; milligrams (mg) and grams (g) are measures of weight or mass while milliliters (mL or ml) measure volume.
1 tsp = 5 ml
