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.)

Calculation: Total volume to be administered in millilitres = 1,500 mL. Convert the volume from milliliters to liters. Conversion factor: 1 L = 1,000 mL. Volume (L) = Total volume (mL) / 1,000 mL/L = 1,500 mL / 1,000 mL/L = 1.5 L. Round the answer to the nearest tenth. = 1.5 L.
