What is quantity?

The quantity is a number or an amount of something.

We have,

Total medication \(=500\) mg

Used for one prescription \(=125\) mg

Used for second prescription \(=62.5\) mg

Will be Used for third prescription \(=25.25\) mg

So,

Now,

Total quantity of medication had been used \(=125+62.5+25.25=212.75\) mg

And,

Now,

The quantity of the original medication left\(=500-212.75=287.25\)

Hence, we can say that the quantity of medication had been used will be \(212.75\) mg  and the quantity of the original medication left will be \(287.25\) mg .
