Course: Veterinary Science II (18105-II) > Section: Performing Mathematical Operations (Posology)

Demonstration should include

- listing volume and weight equivalents
- converting between metric units (e.g., milliliters and liters)
- converting between pounds and kilograms
- converting between metric units and avoirdupois units
- converting fluid ounces to various units in the avoirdupois system (e.g., cups, gallons, quarts, pints, tablespoons, teaspoons).
