Answer 1

1. the question has a wrong sentence. The drop factor is 15 drops/ ml NOT minute

Drops / minute=

volume x drop factor time

=

3000 x 15 24 x 60

=31.25

31 drops per minute

2. Ml/ hour= 1500/8= 187.5ml/hr

Drops/minute = 1500×158×60 =46.8

1500x15 8x60

47 drops/minute

3. microdrip drop factor= 60gtt/ml

Drops/minute = = 100 gtt/min

100x60 60

4. ml/hour =1000/6 = 166.7 ml/hour
