Respuesta :

Answer:

Part 1.

In 12 hours 30 units of  Humulin R insulin in 300 mL is to be infused.

So, per hour = [tex]\frac{30}{12}= 2.5[/tex] units are to be infused.

Part 2.

Now 30 units Humulin R insulin in 300 mL of normal saline (NS).

So, 2.5 units will be in : [tex]\frac{300\times2.5}{30}= 25[/tex] mL

Hence. 2.5 units Humulin R insulin in 25 mL of normal saline (NS).
