Given;

The number of tablets is, n = 160.

The quantity of aspirin in each tablet is,


q=62\text{mg(}\frac{1\text{ g}}{1000\text{ mg}})=0.062\text{ g}

The objective is to find the total grams of aspiring in the bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, each tablet contains 0.062 g of aspiring, then 160 tablet in the bottle will contains,


\begin{gathered} T=n* q \\ =160*0.062 \\ =9.92\text{ g} \end{gathered}

Hence, the total grams of aspiring in the bottle is 9.92 g.
