$$ \frac{\text{0.4 mL} \times \text{5 kg}}{\text{1.5 mg/mL}} = \text{0.12 mg/kg} $$
⇉ Dosage in mg/kg: ≈ 0.12 mg/kg ⇇
Based on the numbers entered, your rabbit of 5 kg (11.02 lbs) is taking
a total of 0.4 mL (0.4 cc) of medicine a day, with a concentration of 1.5 mg/mL, therefore your rabbit is getting a dosage of
0.12 mg of medicine per 1 kg of body weight (0.12 mg/kg).
Math for a 5 kg or 11.02 lb rabbit: 0.4 mL × 1.5 mg/mL ÷ 5 kg ≈ 0.12 mg/kg
Maths
0.4 mL × 1.5 mg/mL = 0.6 mg
0.6 mg ÷ 5 kg = 0.12 mg/kg ≈ 0.12 mg/kg
0.6 mg ÷ 11.0231131 lbs = 0.054431084445645 mg/lb ≈ 0.05 mg/lb
