The safe dosage of the IV antibiotic ceftriaxone for children weighing more than 2.0 kg is 60. mg per kilogram of body weight. Suppose a pediatric nurse has available 1.5 L of a ceftriaxone solution with a concentration of 0.030 g/mL. How can she calculate the volume of this solution that she should administer to a child weighing 41. kg? Set the math up. But don't do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression.
