Correct Answer is ["1935"]
Explanation
Use 1 oz = 30 mL.
Breakfast: 4 oz milk + 4 oz coffee = 8 oz = 8 × 30 = 240 mL.
1030: urine output (450 mL) — not part of intake.
1100: 125 mL IV ampicillin + 400 mL water = 525 mL.
Lunch: 8 oz water + 4 oz apple juice = 12 oz = 12 × 30 = 360 mL.
1300: urine (400 mL) and emesis (75 mL) — outputs, not intake.
1500: 7 oz ice chips + 4 oz jello = 11 oz = 11 × 30 = 330 mL.
Dinner: 8 oz soda + 8 oz water = 16 oz = 16 × 30 = 480 mL. (Assumed “50% of her meal” provided no additional measurable fluid.)
Total intake = 240 + 525 + 360 + 330 + 480 = 1935 mL.
Final Answer:1935
