First, good job! All I did was ask a few questions to help get/keep you on track. The key in solving this type problem is determing what, of all the information provided, do you actually need as as they frequently provide much more information than you actually need.
As to my answer, I get 16.9090. This might resulted nased on how and when you rounded. In my practice, I don't round until I have completed all of me calculations and have obtained my final answer.
As to rounding. Where I work, i would program the patients weight, dose, and medication concentration into the pump and it would calculate thd rate automaticlly. If I was going to enter the rate, I would rounf to either 1 or 2 decimal places depending on whether I was using an infusion pump or syringe pump. As to how you round, you need to clarify this with your instructor.
Thank you very much for your help!!!
