Answer:
[tex]Rate = 16.67\ drops/min[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
[tex]Volume = 100mL[/tex]
[tex]Time = 2\ hours[/tex]
Required
Calculate the rate of delivery
This is calculated using:
[tex]Rate = \frac{Volume}{Time}[/tex]
Substitute values for Volume and Time
[tex]Rate = \frac{100mL}{2\ hours}[/tex]
Convert 100mL to drops
[tex]Rate = \frac{100 * 20 drops}{2\ hours}[/tex]
[tex]Rate = \frac{2000 drops}{2\ hours}[/tex]
Convert 2 hours to minutes
[tex]Rate = \frac{2000 drops}{2 * 60\ min}[/tex]
[tex]Rate = \frac{2000 drops}{120\ min}[/tex]
[tex]Rate = 16.67\ drops/min[/tex]
