use dimensional analysis to solve please.
50. An IV of D5W 500mL was ordered to infuse over 10hr at a rate of 13gt/min (13 macrogt/min). Drop factor: 15gtt/mL After 3hr, you notice that 300mL of IV solution is left. Recalculate the rate in gt/2/min for the remaining solution. 51. An IV of D5W 1,000mL was ordered to infuse over 8hr at a rate of 42gtt/min(42macrogt/min). Drop factor: 20gtt/mL After 4hr, you notice that only 400mL has infused. Recalculate the rate in gt/min for the remaining solution. 52. An IV of 1,000mL D5 1/2 NS has been ordered to infuse at 125mL/hr. Drop factor: 15 gtt /mL The IV was hung at 7AM. At 11AM, you check the IV, and there is 400mL left. Recalculate the rate in gtt/min for the remaining solution.
