Use these formulas for making your calculations. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Averages
Add the values from the three subjects; divide by three.
Residual Volume (females 19-99 yrs)
RV = (0.0813 × height in inches) + (0.009 × age in yrs.) – 3.9
Note: All studied subjects are females 25 years old and 65 inches tall

Inspiratory Capacity
IC= TV + IRV
Functional Residual Capacity
FRC = ERV + RV
Vital Capacity
VC = TV + IRV + ERV
Total Lung Capacity
TLC = TV + IRV + ERV + RV
Minute Ventilation
Multiply the breathing rate (breaths/min) by tidal volume.
