You need to find the unit rate for sales per month:
4200 bottles/ 3 months = 1400 bottles / 1 month

Your answer: 1400 bottles per month

Answer: There are 1400 bottles he has to sell each month to meet his goal.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of bottles of a new medicine = 4200

Number of months = 3

We need to find the number of bottles he has to sell each month to meet his goals.

So, Number of bottles in each month would be


(4200)/(3)\\\\=1400

Hence, there are 1400 bottles he has to sell each month to meet his goal.
