Answer : The time taken will be 25 min.

Explanation :

First we have to determine the amount of fluid.

As, 1 mL contains 30 gtt

So, 500 mL contains [tex]\frac{500mL}{1mL}\times 30gtt=1500gtt[/tex]

Now we have to determine the time taken.

As, 60 gtt takes time = 1 min

So, 1500 gtt takes time = [tex]\frac{1500gtt}{60gtt}\times 1min=25min[/tex]

Therefore, the time taken will be 25 min.
