Answer:

total amount of fluids = 842.78 ml

Explanation:

coffee = 1 c = 1 cup

as 1 cup = 236.59 ml

thus coffee drank by patient = 236.59 ml

milk = 20 oz = 20 ounce

as 1 ounce = 29.57 ml

20 ounce = 20 * 29.57 = 591.4 ml

thus milk drank by patient = 591.4 ml

medication = 1 Tbs = 1 tablespoon

as 1 tablespoon = 14.79 ml

thus medication drank by patient = 14.79 ml

total amount of fluids drank by the patient,

= 236.59 + 14.79 + 591.4

= 842.78 ml
