Dear ,

The numerical answer has been corrected by Dora. At this time I do

not know what it originally stated. Hopefully the number was correct

and a typo existed which should have had 30 grains converted to 1800

mg or 1950 mg depending upon whether one uses 60 or 65 mg as the

conversion factor from grains to mg.

Thank you for pointing out the typo/error.

If it was in grams the correct answer to convert 30 grains to grams

is 2 gram.

This would use the 'accepted' converstion factor of 15 grain = 1 gram

30 grain x 1 gram/15 grain = 2 gram or 2000 mg.

I hope this helps you.

Thanks
