I got something like 0.17mg/L for the concentration from the graph. My final result after calculations was something like 0.23mg/kg which is smaller than 0.5mg/kg so it is safe to eat.

0.228 ---> 0.23

u use the graph to get 0.17mg/L then convert to mg/kg

(since volume wass 0.025L and mass 0.018 or something)

I had no idea what was going on.

Then I was like WELL (thinking logically)

It's per litre, so I'll covert it to 25mL.

And the fish was in grams, so I put it in kilograms.

Then I randomly multiplied two numbers and got 0.228mg/L and said It was safe so eat. So glad everyone here is saying that it is the answer!

Best guess I've done throughout my entire HSC.

I got 9902 mg per kg
L multiplied the mg per litre by 1000 to get mg only.
Shit
