40/100 = 56/x
0.4 = 56/x
x = 56/0.4 = 140

37% dextrose solution (37 mg per 100ml of solution) is given iv. Suppose a total of 3.81 liters is given over a 15 hour period.
sashaice [31]

Answer:

During 15 hour period, 1409.7 mg of dextrose will be delivered.

The flow rate of dextrose per hour will be 93.98 mg/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a total of 3.81 liters of the solution is given over a 15 hour period.

Now, 1 liter is equivalent to 1000 ml

So, a total of 3810 ml of the solution is given over a 15 hour period.

If 100 ml of solution contains 37 mg of dextrose, then 3810 ml of the solution will contain \frac{37 \times 3810}{100} = 1409.7 mg of dextrose.

So, during the 15 hour period, 1409.7 mg of dextrose will be delivered.

The flow rate of dextrose per hour will be \frac{1409.7}{15} = 93.98 mg/hour. (Answer)
