How being a surgeon relates to geometry

Perscription's

• Regularly, doctors write prescriptions to their patients, Doctors need to figure out how many milligrams of medication each patient will need, depending on their weight. Doctors must be able to do these calculations mentally with speed and accuracy.

Medicine

• Doctors must also consider how long the medicine will stay in the patient’s body. Example of an equation (By cross-multiplying and dividing, we see that 25mcg = 0.025mg. If the patient weighs 52kg, then the patient receives 0.025(52) = 1.3mg per minute. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so in one hour the patient should receive 1.3(60) = 78mg. )
