An IV infusion of 2000 mL D5W was started for a patient beginning at 6:00 AM and was scheduled to run for 12 hours. However, the flow rate of the IV bag was entered incorrectly into the IV pump. At 11:00 AM, 816 mL of D5W remained in the bag. At what flow rate, in mL/hr, should the remaining fluid be given to the patient to complete the administration of the fluid in the scheduled time?
