Math problems for #momsters

Sick kid has taken meds for a week on Thursday, today is Saturday. The meds are supposed to be taken for 10 days, when will he take the last dose? And I thought I'd never use these things in real life πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ #momlife #math #kidsaregross

Sunday I think πŸ«‚ tomorrow, no?

I hope they feel better lovely - sorry, got so caught up in the math I forgot πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ’œπŸ«‚

πŸ˜‚ Math is hard. Yes, kids are resilient and he was better the next day, but he has to take the full course of antibiotics. Thanks for the kind thoughts πŸ₯°

Sunday

If I’m understanding this correctly:

1 - Thursday, Mar 28

2 - Friday, Mar 29

3 - Saturday, Mar 30

4 - Sunday, Mar 31

5 - Monday, Apr 1

6 - Tuesday, Apr 2

7 - Wednesday, Apr 3

8 - Thursday, Apr 4

9 - Friday, Apr 5

10 - Saturday, Apr 6

If he’s supposed to take ten doses and the first one was Thursday, March 28 then the last one is today, April 6

7 (week) + 2 (Saturday) + 1 (Sunday)

...Sunday

This was how I worked it out in my head πŸ˜‚
