Fractions• Simple• Proper• Improper• Mixed numbers• Complex
![Page 5: Module B: Basic Math for Pharmacology. Basic Math Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e4c5503460f94b41b9a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Fractions• Reducing to lowest terms
– Divide N & D with a common D
• Changing improper fractions– Top number is larger than the bottom, divide bottom # into top#.- Write the remainder as a fraction and
reduce to lowest terms
![Page 6: Module B: Basic Math for Pharmacology. Basic Math Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e4c5503460f94b41b9a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Fractions• Change mixed #’s into improper
fractions– Multiply the whole # by the bottom #– Add total to the top #– Write sum at top; bottom remains
same

Fractions• Adding and subtracting fractions
– If same bottom #, then add the top, bottom remains same.
– If D is different, then find the lowest common D.
• Adding and Subtracting mixed numbers

Ratio & Proportion• Ratios you many see:
– Wt or strength of a drug in a tab or capsule• Example: 50mg: 1 tab• Meaning : each tablet has 50 mg
• Weight or strength of a drug in a volume
• Example = 50mg:2ml• Meaning = 50 mg in 2ml of volume

Ration & Proportion• When administering medication you
can give– Tablets, Capsules, and ml (in a syringe)
• Remember:– The ratios must be written in the same
sequence of measurements

Dimensional Analysis1) Identify the desired unit.2) Identify the equivalent needed and set up
in fraction form.3) Write the equivalent in fraction format,
keeping the desired unit in the numerator of the fraction.
4) Be sure to label all factors in the equation.5) Identify undesired units and cancel them.6) Perform the mathematical process
indicated.
![Page 36: Module B: Basic Math for Pharmacology. Basic Math Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649e4c5503460f94b41b9a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Dimensional Analysis• By flipping the fraction, no value is
changed.• Remember: They are ratios in
fraction form.• Starting the equivalent incorrectly
will not allow you to eliminate desired units.
• Knowing when the equation is set up correctly is an important part of using Dimensional Analysis.

Formulas• D/H x Q = X• D = Dose desired• Hand = have on hand• Q = the quantity or the unit of
measure that contains the dose.

Formulas• Memorize the formula• Place the information from the problem into
the formula in the correct position, with all terms in the formula labeled correctly.
• Make sure all measures are in the same units and system of measure or a conversion must be done before calculating the dose.
