Answer:
5.89 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
doctor prescribed = 0.75 ml (2x a day) = 1.5 mL
pharmacist labeled = 3/4 teaspoon (0.75 teaspoon (2x a day) = 1.5 teaspoon
convert 1.5 teaspoon to mL = 7.39 mL
therefore,
the excess medication given in one day = 7.39 mL - 1.5 mL = 5.89 mL

[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The doctor prescribed a baby 0.75 ml of medication twice a day.
[tex]0.75 \cdot 2 = 1.5[/tex]
The baby should take 1.5 ml of medication in one day.
The pharmacist labeled the bottle with instructions to administer 3/4 teaspoon twice a day.
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{3}{4} \cdot 2 = 1.5[/tex]
The instructions told to take 1.5 teaspoons of medication in one day.
[tex]\sf 1.5 \ teaspoons = 7.39 \ ml[/tex]
The excess medication given in one day (in ml):
[tex]\Longrightarrow 7.39-1.5 \\ \\ \\ \Longrightarrow 5.89[/tex]
[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]
