Answer:

Needs 13.6077 mg/mL, but they have in stock only 10 mg/mL, so will be short 3.6077 mg/dL.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 lb= 0.45359 kg

60lbs converted to kg= 60lb = 27.2154 kg

Medication order 0.5 mg x kg = 0.5 mg x 27.2154 kg = 13.6077 mg/mL

In stock only 10 mg/mL= 13.6077 mg/mL - 10 mg/mL= 3.6077 mg/mL

Will be short 3.6077 mg/mL
