Answer:

12,600mg per 21 days

Explanation:

200mg three times a day → (200mg)(3) = 600mg per a day

21 days → (21)(600mg) = 12,600mg per 21 days

So if he is taking a 200 milligrams tablet three times a day, you first want to multiply 200 by 3.

200 · 3 = 600

Then you want to take the 600 and and multiply it by 21, for the 21 days he took 600 milligrams of prescription.

600 · 21 = 12,600

Your answer is 12,600 milligrams.

Hope this helps! :)
