Thanks to all of you for your help. When I see numbers in a problem, I always try to plug them all in into an equation. I am learning what is relevant and what is not. Thanks once again:)
Wondering if someone can walk me through this calculation problem. Order:500 cc D5W with 20 mEq KCL Avail: 15 mEq/7.5cc How many cc of the KCl must be added to the IV bag?

yeah, that's a little better..it's just that I have such a hard time setting up the equation. The math part is easy, just setting up the equation in the right way is what I'm finding hard to do.
Can someone please help me with this calculation? I'm not just looking for an answer, but how do you go about getting the answer. Thanks so much Order: add 2 grams Thiamine to 1000 cc IV fluids Available: 500 per 5cc Volume in IV fluid bag 500 cc.

Thank you all so much...I thought that was the answer, but with my instructors, it's usually NOT the first thing that comes to my mind. Hope you all have a blessed day :)
