50*10 = 500 drops.
60ml x 15 drops/ml = 900 total drops 900 total drops divided by 60 minutes (1 hour) = 15 drops per minute
880.57 US gallons per minute
miles per hour x 88 = feet per minute
Converting minutes to weeks is easy. Just multiply by 60 minutes per hour x 24 hours per day x 7 days per week to get 10080 minutes per week. The drops per gallon is a little harder to figure. I assume you are talking water, still, it could vary depending upon the purity and temperature of the water. However, U.S. Geological Survey says that they have made a number of measurements, and figure an average of 15140 drops per gallon. Take your 2 1/2 gallons. Multiply by 15140 to get to drops per week. Divide by 10080 to get to drops per minute. The answer is: around 3.75 drops per minute.
To calculate the number of drops per minute, you would multiply the amount of IV fluids per day by the number of drops per mL (1400mL/day x 15 drops/mL). Next, divide this total by the number of minutes in a day to find the drops per minute.
50*10 = 500 drops.
60ml x 15 drops/ml = 900 total drops 900 total drops divided by 60 minutes (1 hour) = 15 drops per minute
For an IV rate of 100 ml per hour, you would set the IV pump to deliver 1.67 ml per minute (100 ml divided by 60 minutes). If you are using a standard IV administration set with a drip factor of 10 drops per ml, this would equal 16.7 drops per minute (1.67 ml multiplied by 10 drops). You would typically round this to the nearest whole number, so in this case, it would be 17 drops per minute.
(42 drop/minute) x (60 minute/hour) = 2,520 drop/hour

miles per hour x 88 = feet per minute
To calculate the drops per minute needed for the 500 ml of D5W to be administered over 5 hours, first, convert 5 hours to minutes (5 hours x 60 minutes = 300 minutes). Then calculate the drops per minute by dividing the total volume (500 ml) by the time in minutes (300 minutes) and the drip factor (15 gtt/mL), i.e., 500 ml / 300 min x 15 gtt/mL = 25 gtt/min.
The rate of water dripping from the eaves of the house is 20 drops per minute.
If the set delivers 10 drops per ml, you want a total of 1000x10 drops of normal saline over 4 hours. This is 10000 drops and now divide that by 4 hours, but you will want the 4 hours as minutes. So 4 hours is 240 minutes. Then answer must be in the form drops per minute so divide 10000 drops by 240 minutes and the exact answer is 125/3 which is 41.67 drops per minute. We need can't measure part of a drop so round this off to 42 drops per minute. Now let's check the answer. 42 drops per minute x240 minutes=10000 drops which is 1000 ml. DONE
