Question
I'm in a Pharmacology class and it's been awhile since I've had any math dealing so in depth with specific formulas.  Can you provide me with formula's for these and maybe other problems;

Ex. 15 grains=     drams
1 1/2 quart=       oz.
30 liters=         cc
10 drams=          oz.
2.5 grams=         mg.
2.6 liters=        ml.

If you can provide examples of each giving me the formulas it would be greatly appreciated.

Hope I can call on you again.  Soon.
