    Calculation

    A nurse is preparing to administer 0.9% sodium chloride 1,500 mL IV to infuse over 1 hr. How many L will the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

    mL

    Explanation & Rationale

    Calculation: Total volume milliliters (mL) to be administered = 1,500 mL. Convert the total volume from milliliters (mL) to liters (L). 1,000 mL = 1 L. Volume in L = Total volume (mL) / 1,000 mL/L = 1,500 mL / 1,000 mL/L = 1.5 L.
