You now know that the IR is 15 mW. Since you did not
know the original dBm value, you cannot give the IR
value in dBms, only mWs.

And then perform the correlative
mathematics on the mW column.
Now you can add the 20 dBi gain of Adding 10 twice in the dBm column
the antenna. You do this by adding means that you must multiply the mW
10 twice. column by 10 twice.

So the EIRP is 1500 mW or 1.5 watts. So even though you could not
calculate the actual value for dBms using the rule of 10s and 3s, you were
still able to calculate the mW value.

If you had used the logarithmic formula dBm = 10 * log10(PmW) to calculate the
dBm value for 30 mW, the value would be 14.7712. If you then added and
subtracted the dB gains and losses and calculated the corresponding mW
values, this is what you would have come up with.
