First determine the daily dose:

\n

\\begin{align}\\text{daily dose (mg/day)}&=\\text{daily dose per kilogram (mg/kg/day)} \\times \\text{weight (kg)}\\\\&=\\var{dpkg} \\text{ mg/kg/day} \\times \\var{w} \\text{ kg}\\\\&=\\var{d} \\text{ mg/day}\\end{align}

\n

Since there are $\\var{n}$ doses/day:

\n

\\begin{align}\\text{individual dose (mg)}&=\\frac{\\text{daily dose (mg/day)}}{\\text{number of doses per day (/day)}}\\\\&=\\frac{\\var{d} \\text{ mg/day}}{\\var{n} \\text{ /day}}\\\\&=\\var{idrounded} \\text{ mg}\\end{align}

\n

\\begin{align}\\text{individual dose (mg)}&=\\frac{\\text{daily dose (mg/day)}}{\\text{number of doses per day (/day)}}\\\\&=\\frac{\\var{d} \\text{ mg/day}}{\\var{n} \\text{ /day}}\\\\&=\\var{idrounded} \\text{ mg  (to the nearest mg)}\\end{align}
