A pharmacy technician is tasked with calculating the total daily dosage for a medication that is prescribed as "1.5 tablets in the morning and 2 tablets in the evening." What is the total daily dosage?

To determine the total daily dosage for the prescribed medication, we need to add the doses given for both the morning and evening. The prescription states "1.5 tablets in the morning" and "2 tablets in the evening."

Calculating the total daily dosage involves performing the following addition:

1.5 tablets (morning dose) + 2 tablets (evening dose) = 3.5 tablets.

This means that the total daily dosage is 3.5 tablets. Therefore, the correct choice reflects this calculation.

Given this calculation, the choice of 4.5 tablets would not accurately represent the total delivery of the prescribed medication. Similarly, looking at 4 tablets and 5 tablets also fails to capture the correct sum based on the given morning and evening dosages. Thus, the total amount prescribed leads to the conclusion that 3.5 tablets is indeed the correct total daily dosage.
