Answer 1

The patient will receive 200,000 mcg of the drug.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order instructs the patient to receive 20 mL of a certain drug.

The concentration of the drug is 10,000 mcg/mL.

To calculate the amount of drug the patient will receive, we multiply the concentration by the volume:

20 mL * 10,000 mcg/mL = 200,000 mcg

Therefore, the patient will receive 200,000 mcg of the drug.
