                                                          = 81 x 10^-3 g

                                                          = 81 x 10^-6 kg

1 low - dose aspirin tablet --------------- 81 x 10^-6 kg aspirin

3000 low - dose aspirin tablet ----------- ??

mass of aspirin produce = 3000 x 81 x 10^-6 / 1

                                      = 0.243 kg
