Is 0.05mg to 50mcg

Answer 1

To start off, mg=milligrams and mcg=micrograms.

milli- can be replaced with 10-3 while micro- can be replaced with 10-6

0.05mg can be rewritten as 0.05*10-3g

To get the value in mcg (10-6), you need to multiply by 103 and by 10-3 like this:

[0.05 * (103)] * [10-3 * (10-3)] g = 50 * 10-6 g = 50mcg

So yes, 0.05 mg is equal to 50mcg.
