Answer: The client’s fluid balance during this 8-hour period is 360ml.
Explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we simply have to subtract the client's liquid loss (125ml of fluid) to the Client's intake (ml of tea).
Mathematically speaking:
360ml -125ml = 235ml
Where 360 is obtained by multiplying by 2 a 180ml cup of tea (because the client drinks 2 cups).
180 ml x 2 = 360ml
The client’s fluid balance during this 8-hour period is 360ml.
