    A nurse is completing an 8-hr l&O record for a client who consumed 4 oz juice, 6 oz tea, a 100 mL of water, and 8 oz broth. The nurse should record how many mL of intake on the client's record? __ mL

    mL

    Explanation & Rationale

    Step 1 is to identify the volumes in ounces (oz) and the specific volume in milliliters (mL) Juice: 4 oz Tea: 6 oz Water: 100 mL Broth: 8 oz Step 2 is to convert the volumes from ounces (oz) to milliliters (mL) Conversion factor: 1 oz = 30 mL Juice in mL = 4 × 30 4 × 30 = 120 mL Tea in mL = 6 × 30 6 × 30 = 180 mL Broth in mL = 8 × 30 8 × 30 = 240 mL Step 3 is to calculate the total intake in milliliters (mL) Total intake = Juice + Tea + Water + Broth Total intake = 120 + 180 + 100 + 240 120 + 180 = 300 300 + 100 = 400 400 + 240 = 640 Answer: 640 mL
