Answer: A - It would require 5 packets of Panacur to treat a 50 pound dog. First, calculate how many mg are in one packet. A mg is equal to 1/1000 of a gram, so 22.2% is 222 mg. Next, convert pounds to mg (50/2.2 = 22.7 kg). Then multiply 22.7 kg by the dosage (50 mg). The result is 1135 mg. Since each packet contains 222 mg, it would take 5 of them to administer a1135 mg dose.
