Answer:

b. 2 2 to 3 oz (60 to 90 mL)

Explanation:

The answer would be 72.94 ml/times

In this problem, the infant is fed for every 4 hours.

Then, the frequency of feeding for a day would be: (24hours/day) / 4 (hours/times)= 6 times/ day.

The volume of feeding for a day that the infant need would be: 2722\times\frac{454}{73} = 473.68ml/day

The number of milk for every fed would be: (473.68ml/day)/ (6 times/day)=  72.94 ml/times

Hence option b seems most appropriate answer
