Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Hi Jenyfer! I have no idea how many calories are in Peptamen Jr but I can help a bit with the conversions. 18lbs = 8.18 Kg 8.18 Kg x 90(cal)= 736 Which means that she's to get 736 cal. All you have to do is convert her weight into Kilos and multiply that by how many cals are in the formula. That's about all I can help with, to make other conversions a bit easier for you though there are 30cc's or ml's to an ounce. Hope that this helps (and that it's accurate!)

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Jenyfer- I'm sorry...I really sucked in math. Was good in Geometry but sucked in any kind of conversions, to this very day. But I gotta tell ya that I was real good in English though <wink>! -Sharon- Just an RSS kid who grew up > Can somebody please help my math challenged mind? > > How many calories per ounce in Peptamen Jr? > > and > > If Pippin weighs 18lbs and she's to get 90cal per kilo how > many calories per day is that? > > Could somebody please explain how to do the math?

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 Hi Team Lapish, 18 lb is 8.1647 kg. So, multiply 8.1647 times 90 and that is 735 calories per day. I believe that peptamen jr is one calorie per ml but I am not sure. 1 ml = 1 cc. However, there are 30 ml in an ounce. There is a website that can convert from pounds to kilo for you. The website is http://www.worldwidemetric.com/metcal.htm Good luck, Judith, Steve, (RSS) and Rebecc a (non RSS) 4 1/2 year old twins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 << I know a mL or cc is 1 ounce and that's about it...>> 5 mls (or 5 cc's) is 1 tsp I do believe.
