Answer #1

ANSWER.

* Calculation of hourly rate (ml/hr).

        Formula

               Rate(ml/hr) = Volume(ml)/Time(hr).

   Here

       Volume(ml) = 2.5l

Convert l to ml for calculation

          1 l = 1000 ml.

     Volume(ml) = 2.5 * 1000

                        = 2500 ml.

       Time(hr) = 24 hr.

As per above formula

             Rate(ml/hr) = 2500/24

                                 = 104.2 ml/hr.
