Respuesta :

40 drops of blood in a tube that holds 2 mL

Answer:

40 drops of blood are in the blood collection tube that holds 2 mL.

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that a drop of blood is 0.05 mL

This can be written as

1 drop = 0.05 mL

Now we want to calculate how many drops of blood are in the blood collection tube that holds 2 mL.

[tex]\text{Number of drops of blood}=\frac{\text{Volume of blood collect in a tube}}{\text{Volume of a drop of blood}}[/tex]

Substitute the respective value in above formula.

[tex]\text{Number of drops of blood}=\frac{2mL}{0.05mL}=40[/tex]

Hence, 40 drops of blood are in the blood collection tube that holds 2 mL.
