What is the total volume of fluid needed if D5W is to run at 50mL/hr for 24 hours?

  1. 1200mL

  2. 2083mL

  3. 480mL

  4. 2000mL

The correct answer is: 1200mL

The total volume of fluid needed for D5W to run at 50mL/hr for 24 hours is 1200mL. This is because 50mL/hr x 24 hours = 1200mL. Option B is incorrect because it calculates the total volume for 24 hours at a rate of 60mL/hr, which is not specified in the question. Option C is incorrect because it only calculates the hourly rate for 24 hours, not the total volume. Option D is incorrect because it does not consider the hourly rate of 50mL/hr. Therefore, option A is the most accurate calculation for the total volume of fluid needed.
