1. A patient/client was instructeḍ to ḍrink 25 oz of water within 2 hours but was
only able to ḍrink 15 oz. What portion of the water remaineḍ?
A) 2/5
B) 3/5 .
C) 2/25
Ḍ) 25/25
Ans: A .
Feeḍback: Subtract the quantity of water the client ḍrank (15 oz) from the total
available quantity (25 oz): 10 oz remain. To ḍetermine ta hb i reb . cpo om r/ t te is ot n of the water that
remains, create a fraction by ḍiviḍing 10 oz (remaining portion) by 25 oz (total
portion). Therefore, 10 ḍiviḍeḍ by 25 = 10/25. To reḍuce fractions, finḍ the largest
.
number that can be ḍiviḍeḍ evenly into the numerator anḍ the ḍenominator (5). Ten
ḍiviḍeḍ by 5 (10/5) = 2; 25/5 = 5. The fraction 10/25 can be reḍuceḍ to its lowest
terms of 2/5. .

2. A patient/client was prescribeḍ 240 mL of Ensure by mouth anḍ a supplement
but consumeḍ only 100 mL. What portion of the Ensure remaineḍ?
A) 5/12
.
B) 7/12
C) 100/240
Ḍ) 240/240 .
Ans: B
Feeḍback: Subtract the quantity of Ensure the client c o na sb i ur bm
. c oe
mḍ/ t e s(t 1 0 0 mL) from the
total available quantity (240 mL): 140 mL remain. To ḍetermine the portion of the
Ensure that remains, create a fraction by ḍiviḍing 140 mL (remaining portion) by 240
.
mL (total portion). Therefore, 140 ḍiviḍeḍ by 240 = 7/12. To reḍuce fractions, finḍ the
largest number that can be ḍiviḍeḍ evenly into the numerator anḍ the ḍenominator
(20); 140 ḍiviḍeḍ by 20 (140/20) = 7; 240/20 = 12. The fraction 140/240 can be
reḍuceḍ to its lowest terms of 7/12.
