Hi Brittany,
For this question, we look at how many capsules of Amoxicillin 500mg are being taken each day. In this question, every 8 hours equates to 3 capsules taken daily.

Next, we divide #42 (the total amount of capsules dispensed in the prescription) by the total amount of capsules prescribed daily, which is 3.

42 divided by 3 = 14

The prescription will have a 14 days supply if taken as prescribed.

Thank you for the question!
