Question

a nurse is preparing to administer furosemide 40 mg po daily in 0.5 oz of orange juice. how many ml of orange juice should the nurse administer? (round the answer to the nearest whole number. use a leading zero if it applies. do not use a trailing zero.)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the conversion factor

1 fluid - ounce (oz) is approximately equal to 29.5735 mL.

Step2: Calculate the volume in mL

We have 0.5 oz of orange - juice. Using the conversion factor, we multiply the number of ounces by the conversion factor: $V = 0.5\times29.5735$ mL.
$V=14.78675$ mL.

Step3: Round to the nearest whole number

Rounding 14.78675 mL to the nearest whole number gives 15 mL.

Answer:

15
