Answer

$22.4$$cc$

Work Step by Step

First, do $140$ $\div$ $25$. This is because for every 25 pounds of body weight, the person gets 4cc of the dose, so when we divide the woman's body weight by the 25 pounds we see how many doses the woman will get. 140 $\div$ 25 = 5.6, so the woman gets 5.6 doses. But to find out how many cubic centimeters of the dose she would get, multiply 5.6 and 4. $5.6$ $\times$ $4$ $=$ $22.4$
