Answer:

24.39mL of the solution would be given per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by direct rule of three, in which there are a direct relationship between the measures, which means that the rule of three is a cross multiplication.

The first step to solve this problem is to see how many mg of the solution is administered per hour.

Each minute, 200 ug are administered. 1mg has 1000ug, so

1mg - 1000 ug

xmg - 200 ug

1000x = 200

x = \frac{200}{1000}

x = 0.2mg

In each minute, 0.2 mg are administered. Each hour has 60 minutes. How many mg are administered in 60 minutes?

1 minute - 0.2 mg

60 minutes - x mg

x = 60*0.2

x = 12mg

In an hour, 12 mg of the drug is administered. In 250 mL, there is 123 mg of the drug. How many ml are there in 12 mg of the drug.

123mg - 250mL

12 mg - xmL

123x = 250*12

x = \frac{250*12}{123}

x = 24.39mL

24.39mL of the solution would be given per hour.
