Covert 102.5 Fahrenheit to C

(round to tenths)
Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is ["39.2"]

Calculation:

The formula to convert Fahrenheit (°F) to Celsius (°C) is:

°C = (°F - 32) × 5/9  

 = (102.5 - 32) × 5/9  

 = (70.5) × 5/9

 = 39.1666...

Rounding to the nearest tenth: 39.2 °C.

Therefore, 102.5 °F is equal to 39.2 °C.

Correct Answer is ["3"]

Explanation

Calculation:

To determine the number of capsules per dose, use the formula:

Capsules per dose = Dose ordered/ Dose available

Given:

  • Ordered dose = 600 mg
  • Available dose = 200 mg per capsule

Capsules per dose = 600mg/ (200mg/capsule)

= 3 capsules

Thus, the nurse will administer 3 capsules per dose.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Auscultation. Auscultation involves listening to internal body sounds, usually with a stethoscope, such as heart, lung, or bowel sounds. It is not used for assessing the radial pulse.
B. Percussion. Percussion is the technique of tapping on body surfaces to assess underlying structures, such as detecting fluid in the lungs or assessing organ size. It is not used to assess pulses.
C. Palpation. Palpation involves using the fingers to feel for the radial pulse by applying gentle pressure over the radial artery at the wrist. This is the correct method for assessing a patient's radial pulse.
D. Inspection. Inspection involves visually examining the patient for abnormalities such as skin color, swelling, or deformities. It does not provide information about pulse rate or rhythm.
