Answer:

[tex]Amount = 4000mL[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]IV\ Fluid = 75mg\ of\ 1000mL[/tex]

Required

Determine the infusion to give a patient that needs 300mg

First, we need to calculate the infusion rate

[tex]Infusion\ Rate = \frac{1000mL}{75mg}[/tex]

[tex]Infusion\ Rate = \frac{40}{3}mL/mg[/tex]

Next, we calculate the required amount for 300mg.

[tex]Amount = Infusion\ Rate * 300mg[/tex]

[tex]Amount = \frac{40}{3}mL/mg * 300mg[/tex]

[tex]Amount = \frac{40}{3}mL * 300[/tex]

[tex]Amount = \frac{40* 300}{3}mL[/tex]

[tex]Amount = 40* 100mL[/tex]

[tex]Amount = 4000mL[/tex]

Hence, the patient will be given 4000mL
