Write the equation for calculating rate
of blood
flow
1464ml of blood passed through an
artery in 4.5 minutes. Calculate the rate
of blood flow through the artery in
ml/min



Answer :

To calculate the rate of blood flow, you can use the general formula for rate, which is:

[tex]\[ \text{Rate} = \frac{\text{Total Volume}}{\text{Total Time}} \][/tex]

Here is a step-by-step solution:

1. Identify the given values:
- Total volume of blood: 1464 milliliters (ml)
- Total time: 4.5 minutes

2. Substitute the given values into the formula:
[tex]\[ \text{Rate of Blood Flow} = \frac{1464 \text{ ml}}{4.5 \text{ min}} \][/tex]

3. Perform the division to find the rate:
[tex]\[ \text{Rate of Blood Flow} = 325.3333333333333 \text{ ml/min} \][/tex]

Therefore, the rate of blood flow through the artery is approximately 325.33 milliliters per minute.
