Order 2.000 D5W IV to infuse over 12 hoursThe drop factor is 15 gtt/. Calculate the rate in gtt / min

42gtt/m

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Flow rate in gtt/min = (Total fluid in ml × Drop factor) ÷ (Total hours × 60)

Where, Total fluid in ml = 2,000ml

Drop factor = 15gtt/m

Total hours = 12hours

By putting the following value in the formula, we get

Flow rate in gtt/min = (2,000 × 15) ÷ (12 × 60)

= 30,000 ÷ 720

= 41.67 or 42gtt/m

(sin 42)/31. = sinx)/37

sinx = 37 (sin42)/31

= 37× 0.66/31 = 0.787

x= 51.9

other angle opposite to y = 180-51.9-42

= 180- 93.9 =86.1

so

sin42)/31 = sin 86.1)/y

0.021 = 0.997 /y

y= 0.997/0.021 =47.47
