A patient requires an IV of D5W, a 5% solution of dextrose (sugar) in water. To the nearest milliliter, how much D20W, a 20% solution of dextrose in water, must be added to 100 milliliters of distilled water to produce a D5W solution? Please show all work.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

5% solution of dextrose sugar in water

20% solution of dextrose in

100 milliliters of distilled water water

Generally in mathematically solving we call A the amount of D20W added

Since 20% of dextrose is needed

Total quantity after addition (100+x)

for DW5% total solution is

Mathematically

Therefore the required quantity

goog may be able to you find that answer

6.5
