0.09 Liters

Explanation:

Givens

1 cc of solution = 1 mL

0.75 cc / min needed to go in intravenously.

2 hours needed.

? Liters

Solution

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 hours = 2 * 60 = 120 minutes

rate = 0.75 cc/minute

Liters = rate * time

Liters = 0.75 cc * 120 minutes

Liters = 90 cc

That's not the answer.

1 Liter has 1000 mL or ccs

x Liter has 90 mL          

Equation

1/x = 1000 / 90

Solution

Cross multiply

1000x = 90*1           Divide by 1000

x = 90/1000

x = 0.09 Liters.
