A medical assistant is calculating a pediatric dose using the standard proportion-solving strategy. Arrange the following steps in the correct order, from first to last, as they would be performed in a clinical setting.

In a pediatric clinic, the standard dosage for a specific cough syrup is 5 ml for every 25 lbs of a child's weight. When setting up a proportion to find the dosage 'a' for a patient weighing 80 lbs, which equation correctly aligns the units as 'milliliters over pounds' on both sides?

When solving a medication dosage calculation expressed as $\frac{5}{25} = \frac{a}{80}$, a medical assistant typically multiplies both sides of the equation by the ____ to clear the fractions and simplify the solving process.

In a clinical setting, calculating a pediatric dosage requires a systematic approach. Match each phase of the proportion-solving strategy with the correct action performed by a medical professional.

When a healthcare professional uses the proportion-solving strategy to calculate a child's medication dosage, the units must be arranged in the same order in both ratios (for example, milliliters over pounds on both sides) to ensure the equation is translated correctly.
