Answer:

21091mg of aspirin the person need to consume

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we must find the mass of the person in kg. Knowing the lethal dose for aspirin is 400mg/kg of person, we can find the amount of aspirin that the person need to consume to get a lethal dose:

Mass person:

116lb * (1kg / 2.2lb) = 52.7kg

Lethal dose:

52.7kg * (400mg / kg) =

21091mg of aspirin the person need to consume
