Answer:

1.5 grams.

Step-by-Step explanation:

The patient took 500 mg in the first day. Then took 250 mg for the rest of the days.

Let's break it all down to make it clearer.

1st day: 500mg

2nd day: 250mg

3rd day: 250mg

4th day: 250mg

5th day: 250mg

To find how many grams total we just simply add all of them together and convert the milligrams to grams.

500 + 250 + 250 + 250 + 250 = 1,500 mg

Now we do the conversion.

1 gram = 1000 milligrams.

[tex]\dfrac{1500}{1000}[/tex] = 1.5 grams
