The nurse should set the IV flow rate to deliver how many gtt/min?(Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Correct Answer: 31 gtt/min

Rationale: Drops: 1000 mL × 15 gtt/mL = 15000 gtt. Time: 8 hr × 60 min = 480 min. Rate: 15000 gtt ÷ 480 min = 31.25 gtt/min, rounded to 31 gtt/min.
