A surgeon advised an operating room technician to arrange 12 drips of dextrose solution . The hospital has only 2 upon 3 of the required dextrose. How many drips are available in the hospital?

Respuesta :

Answer:

8 dextrose drips

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of drips of dextrose solution available in the hospital is calculated as:

Fraction of available dextrose × The number of dextrose drips required

Fraction of available dextrose = 2/3 The number of dextrose drips required

= 12 dextrose drips

Hence:

2/3 × 12 dextrose drips

= 8 dextrose drips

Therefore, 8 dextrose drips are available in the hospital.
