50 KG is 50,000 gms.
500 mg is 1/2 of a gram
50,000 divided by 0.5 is 100,00 - this is the answer.

Is aspirin a food?
No. It is a drug - an over-the-counter (OTC) pain killer.Aspirin was developed by the German drug company Bayer in the 1890s as an improvement on the then commonly used pain killer Salicylic Acid (an extract of willow tree bark) which can cause extreme stomach upset.The word aspirin is a Bayer trademark in every country except the United States (we voided all German patents and trademarks when we entered WW1) so only in the United States can a company (other than Bayer) sell aspirin labeled as aspirin (instead of its generic name acetylsalicylic acid) without paying licensing fees to Bayer.
Which Australian developed Aspirin in 1915?
Aspirin was invented by German chemist Felix Hoffman on behalf of the Bayer Company in 1897. Hoffman based his work on the rediscovery of work on Acetylsalicylic acid by French chemist Charles Gergardt in 1832. Bayer released Aspirin as a prescription pain reliever in powder form in 1899 and further refined the product and released it in tablet form as an over the counter drug in 1915. As a result of the Treaty of Versailles, Bayer (and Germany) was forced to give up the trademark in 1919.

What year did bayer aspirin get invented?
In 1853.By: Zoya MobeenCharles Gerhardt invented aspirin in 1853.In 1853, Gerhardt neutralized salicylic acid by buffering it with sodium (sodium salicylate) and acetyl chloride, creating acetylsalicylic acid. Gerhardt's product worked but he had no desire to market it and abandoned his discovery.In 1899, a German chemist named Felix Hoffmann, who worked for a German company called Bayer, rediscovered Gerhardt's formula. Felix Hoffmann made some of the formula and gave it to his father who was suffering from the pain of arthritis. With good results, Felix Hoffmann then convinced Bayer to market the new wonder drug. Aspirin was patented on February 27, 1900.The folks at Bayer came up with the name Aspirin, it comes from the 'A" in acetyl chloride, the "spir" in spiraea ulmaria (the plant they derived the salicylic acid from) and the 'in' was a then familiar name ending for medicines. Aspirin was first sold as a powder. In 1915, the first Aspirin tablets were made. Interestingly, Aspirin ® and Heroin ® were once trademarks belonging to Bayer. After Germany lost World War I, Bayer was forced to give up both trademarks as part of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919.*The information above was taken from About.com's History of Aspirin(link in the related links section below)If you want a quicker answer its 1853
