Using the division operation, the number of tubes gotten by each patient can be obtained by dividing 20 by 5. Hence, each patient will get 4 tubes of solution.

Tubes of solution received :

  • 10 a.m = 2 tubes
  • 12 p.m = 4 tubes
  • 3 p.m = 8 tubes
  • 6 p.m = 6 tubes

Total tubes received :

  • (2 tubes + 4 tubes + 8 tubes + 6 tubes) = 20 tubes

  • Number of patients = 5 patients

Number of tubes of solution gotten by each patient :

  • (Total tubes of solution ÷ number of patients)

Tubes of solution per patient = (20 ÷ 5) = 4 tubes

Therefore, each patient will get 4 tubes of solution.
