Intravenous ampicillin sodium 500 mg to be administered over 60 minutes.
The concentration of the IV solution is given as 30 mg /mL
1mL contains 30 mg of ampicillin sodium
Thus the total volume of IV ampicillin sodium to be administered
in mL in 60 minutes = 500mg 
30 mg = 16.666 or 16.7 mL
mcgtt/ min means micro drip rate or drops per minute by using a micro drip tube.
The universal drop factor for a micro drip tube is 60 drops per minute which means 60 drops from a micro drip tube can deliver 1 mL of solution.
The formula for drop rate calculation is,
Total volume of solution to be administered in 60 minutes (mL/hr) x drop factor = drops / minutes
Time in minutes
16.7 x 60 = 16.7 mcgtt/min
60
Thus the answer is, the flow rate of IV ampicillin sodium 500 mg in 60 minutes is 16.7 mcgtt/ min
