Ronch [10]

Answer: your bag will finish at 2112.

Explanation: (38gtt/min) × (10gtt/ml).

Cross multiply. (38gtt×1ml) × (1min×10gtt)

This gives you 38/10...and the gtts cancel out so, it's 38ml/10min.

Simplify this to 3.8 ml/min.

Now, 3.8ml/x min = 500 ml.

Take 500/3.8. This gives you about 132 minutes if you round to the nearest minute. 60 min/he means 132 min = 2h12m. 2h12m from 1900 is 2112.
