Answer:

0.5ml

Explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

The dose of the medication must be equal to 10mg, and we know that the vials contain 20mg/ml

This means that in each milliliter of the solution, we have 20mg of the medication, but we only want to give 10mg, so we must use half of a milliliter.

you can also calculate this by:

Amount needed/amount of the medicament in volume

10mg/(20mg/ml) = (1/2) ml = 0.5ml
