Answer:
Drug will infuse in 2 minutes = 12.5 ml
Step-by-step explanation:
Drug in 400 mg solution = 50 ml
Drug in 1 mg solution = [tex]\frac{50}{400} ml = \frac{1}{8} ml[/tex] ------ (1)
Drug infuse in 1 minute = 50 mg
Drug infuse in 2 minute = 50 × 2 = 100 mg
Now we have to convert this 100 mg into ml.
From equation (1)
Drug in 1 mg solution = [tex]\frac{1}{8} ml[/tex]
So Drug in 100 mg solution = [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] × 100
So Drug in 100 mg solution = 12.5 ml
Therefore 12.5 ml will infuse in 2 minutes.
