Carlita was either sipping the hot chocolate while she was out, or else
approximating the numbers. The exact number she reported is not
possible. To see why, I'll do it strictly by the math:
Robins = 5 times
Cardinals = 1 time
Total birds = 6 times
6 times = 25 birds
Divide each side by 6 : 1 time = 25/6 = 4-1/6 birds
Robins = 5 times = 20-5/6 of them
Cardinals = 1 time = 4-1/6 of them
Total: (20-5/6) + (4-1/6) = 25 birds.
How many more robins than cardinals = (20-5/6) - (4-1/6) = 16-2/3 more.
The math works out fine. But if the numbers she reported are true,
then some of what she saw was partial birds ... legs, or feathers,
things like that. Eeeew. I don't want to talk about it.
I’m not sure if the 15 is the question number but if it is the answer is 32. use PEMDAS

Step-by-step explanation:
I did 6 problems for you. You can now do the other 4 problems and see how I did it. You need to have the same denominator and the add the fractions together.
I hope it helps you get it right
Answer:
the trainee calculated the incorrect amount
It should be 0.5 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
The physician orders penicillin 500,000 units for a patient while the concentration of the drug you have is 1,000,000 units/ 1mL. It's clear that 1mL drug is too much for the patient since 1,000,000 units are higher than 500,000 units.
The amount of penicillin in 1.5 mL will be definitely higher than 1,000,000 units, so it must be a lot higher than the physician's orders. We can roughly guess that the trainee draws an incorrect amount.
To calculate the exact volume you need, you have to divide the amount of the drug you need with the concentration of the drug. The calculation will be:
the volume needed = amount of the drug you need/ concentration of the drug
volume needed = 500,000 units / (1,000,000 units/ 1mL)= 1/2 mL = 0.5 mL
