This question is making me thirsty. I could go for a glass of furosemide-infused lemonade right about now.

Hmm, let's see... 120 mg divided by 40 mg/2 ml. That's 3 ml, so the answer must be B) 3.

I agree with Tomas, because if you divide 120 mg by 40 mg/ml, you get 3 ml. And since the stock injection is 2 ml, you would need 3 ml x 2 = 6 ml.
