First, we are going to determine the number of drops that needs to be administered by dividing the total volume by the volume per drop. Since, 1 cc (cm³) is equal to 1 mL then, 1000 cc is equal to 1000 mL.
n = (1000 mL)(15 drop/1 mL) = 15000 drops
Then, divide the number of drops by the number of drops per minute.
N = (15000 drops)/ (50 drop/min) = 300 mins
Answer: 300 mins or 5 hours
