Answer:

each dose = 6.7 mL ( to 1 decimal place)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total volume of vial = 20mL

each dose of vial = 1/3 of the total volume

let us express this fraction as a real number:

1/3 of 20 = 1/3 × 20

Since we are to express the answer as a decimal, let us convert the fraction to decimal:

1/3 = 0.3333

∴ 1/3 × 20 = 0.3333 × 20 = 6.667 mL

since we are dealing with drugs, it'll be appropraite to express the answer to 1 d.p

∴ each dose = 6.7 mL
