How long will it take to administer 1000 cc at a drop factor of 15 drop/ml and a drip rate of 50 drop/min

First, we are going to determine the number of drops that needs to be administered by dividing the total volume by the volume per drop. Since, 1 cc (cm³) is equal to 1 mL then, 1000 cc is equal to 1000 mL.

n = (1000 mL) (15 drop/1 mL) = 15000 drops

Then, divide the number of drops by the number of drops per minute.

N = (15000 drops) / (50 drop/min) = 300 mins

Answer: 300 mins or 5 hours
