Answer:

Patient A - 150 mg

Patient B - 50 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Since patient A gets three times more, 50 times 3 is 150. 150 plus 50 is 200, therefore, patient A gets 150 mg and patient B gets 50 mg. I hope this helps :)

Answer: The amount of the medicine received by Patient B = 50 milligrams

The amount of the medicine received by Patient A = 150 milligrams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A Patient A receives 3 times the amount of certain medicine as Patient B.

Let x be the dose received by Patient B , then 3x will be the dose received by Patient A.

The two doses add to 200 milligrams.

[tex]x+3x=200\\\\\Rightarrow\ 4x=200\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{200}{4}=50[/tex]

Hence, the amount of the medicine received by Patient B = 50 milligrams

The amount of the medicine received by Patient A = [tex]3\times50=150[/tex]  milligrams
