Explanation
To find out how many mL of gentamicin the nurse should administer, we need to set up a proportion. If 40 mg of gentamicin is equivalent to 1 mL, then 36 mg of gentamicin is equivalent to x mL.
The proportion can be writen as 40/1 = 36/x. Solving for x, we get x = (36 * 1) / 40 = 0.9 mL.
The answer is rounded to the nearest tenth as instructed.
Correct Answer is ["0.1"]
