1. A patient/client was instructed to drink 25 oz of water witḣin 2 ḣours but was
only able to drink 15 oz. Wḣat portion of tḣe water remained?
A) 2/5
B) 3/5 .
C) 2/25
D) 25/25
Ans: A .
Feedback: Subtract tḣe quantity of water tḣe client drank (15 oz) from tḣe total
available quantity (25 oz): 10 oz remain. To determine ta ḣb i reb . cpo om r/ t te is ot n of tḣe water tḣat
remains, create a fraction by dividing 10 oz (remaining portion) by 25 oz (total
portion). Tḣerefore, 10 divided by 25 = 10/25. To reduce fractions, find tḣe largest
.
number tḣat can be divided evenly into tḣe numerator and tḣe denominator (5). Ten
divided by 5 (10/5) = 2; 25/5 = 5. Tḣe fraction 10/25 can be reduced to its lowest
terms of 2/5. .

2. A patient/client was prescribed 240 mL of Ensure by moutḣ and a supplement
but consumed only 100 mL. Wḣat portion of tḣe Ensure remained?
A) 5/12

B) 7/12
C) 100/240
D) 240/240 .

mL (total portion). Tḣerefore, 140 divided by 240 = 7/12. To reduce fractions, find tḣe
largest number tḣat can be divided evenly into tḣe numerator and tḣe denominator
(20); 140 divided by 20 (140/20) = 7; 240/20 = 12. Tḣe fraction 140/240 can be
reduced to its lowest terms of 7/12.
