Answer:

0.125 mg

Explanation:

The correct answer would be 0.125 mg

According to the conversion factor, one milligram of a sample is equivalent to one thousand micrograms of the same sample.

milligram = [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]

microgram = [tex]10^{-6}[/tex]

Hence,

1 milligram = 1000 micrograms or 1 microgram = [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] milligram

Therefore, 125 micrograms will be:

  125/1000 = 0.125 milligram
