Question 1 of 5
A nurse is calculating the total fluid intake for a client during a 4-hr period. The client consumes 1 cup of coffee, 4 oz of orange juice, 3 oz of water, 1 cup of flavored gelatin, 1 cup of tea, 5 oz of broth, and 3 oz of water. The nurse should record how many mL of intake on the client's record? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 1170
Rationale: The correct answer is 1170 mL.
To calculate this, we convert all the fluid intake to mL: 1 cup = 240 mL, 4 oz = 120 mL, and 3 oz = 90 mL. So, the total intake is 240 (coffee) + 120 (OJ) + 90 (water) + 240 (gelatin) + 240 (tea) + 150 (broth) + 90 (water) = 1170 mL. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately convert the fluid intake to mL or do not add up the total correctly. For instance, if you only convert some of the values to mL or make a calculation error, you will get a different total.
