How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
mL
Explanation & Rationale
Formula: Volume (mL) = Dose (mg) / Concentration (mg/mL) Given: Dose = 150 mg Concentration = 150 mg/mL Volume = 150 mg / 150 mg/mL = 1 mL Therefore, the nurse should administer 1 mL.
