Hello!

The answer is: 15 mL

Why?

From the statement we have that 250 mg need to be given every 8 hours, we can calculate how many mg will be given each day (24 hours):

[tex]\frac{24Hours}{8Hours} = 3[/tex]

So,

[tex]3*250mg=750mg[/tex] a day

We also know that there are 50 mg cefaclor every 1mL,

So, to know how many mL will be given with 750mg, we just need to divide it by 50

[tex]\frac{750}{50} = 15[/tex]

Therefore,

15mL or 750 mg of cefaclor will be given each day.

Have a nice day!
