$$\frac{1.50 \times 10^2$\ \mathrm{g}}{11.0\ \mathrm{cm}^3} \times \frac{1000\ \mathrm{cm}^3}{1\ \mathrm{L}} = 1.36 \times 10^4$\ \mathrm{g}/\mathrm{L}$$

Q: A chemist synthesized 1.405 g of aspirin in the lab. If each tablet contains 350 mg, how many tablets did she prepare? (Report your answer with the correct number of significant figures.)

$$1.405\ \mathrm{g} \times \frac{1000\ \mathrm{mg}}{1\ \mathrm{g}} \times \frac{1\ \mathrm{tablet}}{350\ \mathrm{mg}} = 4.01\ \mathrm{tablets}$$

$$133\ \mathrm{lb} \times \frac{0.454\ \mathrm{kg}}{1\ \mathrm{lb}} \times \frac{0.5\ \mathrm{mg}}{1\ \mathrm{kg}} \times \frac{1\ \mathrm{tablet}}{20\ \mathrm{mg}} = 1.5\ \mathrm{tablets}$$
