    First let's convert the minutes to hours (multiply minutes by 60 to get hours):

    30 * 60 = 1,800 drops/hour

    Now that you know how much drops there are per hour, you can multiply this answer by 3 to work out how many drops there are in 3 hours:

    1,800 * 3 = 5,400 drops

    We know that 5 drops is equal to 1 ml, so we can divide 5,400 by 5 to work out the amount of ml:

    5,400 : 5 = 1,080 ml

    Therefore, your final answer is 1,080 millilitres (ml)
