Based on the given values above, in order for us to get the answer, we need to convert the units first. So in 1 kilogram, there is 1,000,000 micrograms. In this case, 1.6 kilograms is 1,600,000 micrograms. For the week to seconds, 1 week is equivalent to 604,800 seconds. Therefore, 1,600,000 micrograms/604,800 seconds. So we are going to simplify this. So it would be 2.65 µg/s. Hope this answers your question.
