    110.2 lbs

    First, let's determine how many kg the patient masses. Since the dose is 3.000 mg/kg we can convert that to 0.003000 g/kg. So

    0.1500 g / 0.003000 g/kg = 50 kg.

    So we know the patient has a weight of 50 kg. Now we simply multiply by 2.20462 to get lbs. So

    50 kg * 2.20462 lbs/kg = 110.231 lbs

    Rounding to 1 decimal place gives 110.2 lbs
