Trying to convert weight of what I’m taking into milligrams.

Hello,

I’m currently taking .438 grams of Clonazepam weighed over three doses and I would like to know how to convert this to how many milligrams of Clonazepam I am actually taking. This is considering that one .5 mg pill weighs .202 grams. Does this equal 1.034 mgs of the drug?

I am horrible at math!!! Help please! Thanks!

That means there is 2.5 mg clonazepam per gram of tablet.  You can multiply "mg/g" times "g" to get mg clonazepam. 

2.5 x 0.438 = 1.095 mg clonazepam.

I wish I could write equations on here. It would be so much easier to see. 

Like (2/4) x 4 = 2  (The 4's cancel out)

So too (mg/gram) x gram = mg (The grams cancel out)

((mg clonazepam)/(gram of tablet)) x (gram of tablet) = mg clonazepam
