Chapter 1: Arithmetic Needed for Dosage




MULTIPLE
CHOICE


1. A patient/client was instructed to drink 25 oz of water within 2 hours but
was only able to drink 15 oz. What portion of the water remained?
a. 2/5
b. 3/5
c. 2/25
d. 25/25
ANS: A
Feedback: Subtract the quantity of water the client drank (15 oz) from
the total available quantity (25 oz): 10 oz remain. To determine the
portion of the water that remains, create a fraction by dividing 10 oz
(remaining portion) by 25 oz (total portion). Therefore, 10 divided by 25 =
10/25. To reduce fractions, find the largest number that can be divided
evenly into the numerator and the denominator
(5). Ten divided by 5 (10/5) = 2; 25/5 = 5. The fraction 10/25 can be
reduced to its lowest terms of 2/5.

2. A patient/client was prescribed 240WmWLWo.f ETnBsuSreMb.yWmSouth as a
supplement but consumed only 100 mL. What portion of the Ensure
remained?
a. 5/12
b. 7/12
c. 100/240
d. 240/240

ANS: B
Feedback: Subtract the quantity of Ensure the client consumed (100 mL)
from the total available quantity (240 mL): 140 mL remain. To determine
the portion of the Ensure that remains, create a fraction by dividing 140
mL (remaining portion) by 240 mL (total portion). Therefore, 140 divided
by 240 = 7/12. To reduce fractions, find the largest number that can be
divided evenly into the numerator and the denominator (20); 140 divided
by 20 (140/20) = 7; 240/20 = 12. The fraction 140/240 can be reduced to
its lowest terms of 7/12.

3. A patient/client consumed oz. of coffee, 2/3 oz. of ice cream, and
oz. of beef broth. What is the total number of ounces consumed that
should be documented for the patient/client?
a. 3 3/4
b. 4 5/12
c. 4 2/3
d. 4 4/9
ANS: B
Feedback: Add the amount of ounces consumed. First, change any
mixed number to a fraction by multiplying the whole number by the
denominator and then adding that total to the numerator. For the coffee, 4
2 = 8 + 1 = 9/4; for the beef broth, 2 1
= 2 + 1 = 3/2. Then add: 9/4 + 2/3 (ice cream) + 3/2. When fractions have
different denominators, find the least common denominator (LCD). For 2,
3, and 4, the LCD =
12. Rewrite each fraction using the LCD; divide the LCD by the
denominator of each fraction and then multiply that result by the
numerator of the fraction. The new fractions to be added are 27/12
(coffee), 8/12 (ice cream), and 18/12 (beef broth). After conversion of the
fractions, the numerators are added together and the fraction is reduced
to the lowest terms.

consumed?
a. 360
b. 420
c. 510
d. 600

ANS: B
Feedback: The coffee cup holds 180 mL. The client drank 2? cups. To
estimate the total number of milliliters consumed, multiply 180 7/3 (
). When a mixed number is present, change it to an improper fraction by
multiplying the whole number by the denominator and then adding that
total to
the numerator: 2 3 = 6 + 1 = 7/3. Therefore, 180 mL × 7/3 = 420 mL
(180 ÷ 3 = 60 × 7 = 420).
