To answer this question, we first need to calculate the total amount of fluid that will be administered over the 16 hours.

1. The drop factor is 20, which means 20 drops equals 1 mL.

2. The PLR 1L stands for 1 liter of fluid, which is equal to 1000 mL.

3. So, if the fluid is to run for 16 hours, the total amount of fluid administered per hour would be 1000 mL / 16 hours = 62.5 mL/hour.

4. If the fluid started at 1pm and we want to know the level by 8pm, that's a total of 7 hours.

5. Therefore, the amount of fluid administered over 7 hours would be 62.5 mL/hour * 7 hours = 437.5 mL.

6. So, the remaining amount in the IV bag at 8pm would be the initial amount (1000 mL) minus the amount administered (437.5 mL), which equals 562.5 mL.

So, the answer is 562.5 cc.
