Conversion

Published

I've looked throughout the course documents and couldn't find what this abbreviation meant and what it was equal to.

Gr. v = mg

From what I found online, Gr. = grains and v=volume and Gr. v = 30 mg?

And when it would say Gr. 3 = ___ mg It would be asking 3 grains is equal to how many mg?

I hope this sounds correct?

V is roman numeral for 5 and roman numerals are used with grains a lot in my nursing program.

The equivalency is 60 mg = 1 grain

15 grains = 1 gram

so I think they are asking you:

v (5) grains = how many mg

but it is kind of hard taking it out of context.

Does this help?
