lb equals 1 : 280 kg

    Ratio strength will have 1 in the numerator (in g unit). Let us, therefore, determine, what volume of this solution will contain 1 g of drug.
    ` (1.607 \quad g)/(450 \quad mL)=(1 \quad g)/(x) therefore x = 280`.
    `therefore (1 \quad g)/(280 \quad mL)` or 1 : 280 will be the expression. Answer.
